About this sound

A short Portuguese voice clip saying 'antes de mais, boa tarde' in a calm, formal tone, used to open videos and memes with a polite, slightly ironic greeting.

The clip is a short spoken Portuguese greeting, delivered in a calm and deliberately formal tone that makes a simple hello feel like the opening of a speech. The speaker says 'antes de mais, boa tarde' slowly and clearly, with a polite, almost ceremonial cadence that stands out against the casual style of most short-form videos. That contrast is the joke and the charm: it sounds respectful, a little old-fashioned and slightly over-serious, which makes it perfect for introducing a clip, addressing an audience, or pretending that an ordinary moment deserves a proper announcement.

Pro tip

Place it at the very start of a video and let it finish before the punchline lands. Pair it with a straight-faced title card or formal scene, and avoid loud music underneath, because its slow, polite delivery is what makes the joke work.

How people use it

Opening a video with a mock-formal afternoon greeting.
Introducing a stream or podcast episode to viewers.
Greeting a group chat with ironic politeness.
Setting up a joke before an unexpected punchline.

More information

Online, this phrase works as a reusable greeting clip rather than a line tied to one famous scene, and its appeal comes from its formality. Portuguese-speaking creators drop it into short videos, memes and group chats when they want to address an audience with exaggerated courtesy before saying something ordinary or absurd. Because the wording is simple and instantly recognisable to Portuguese speakers, it travels well as an audio meme, functioning as a polite cold open that signals a joke is coming without needing any extra context.

FAQ

What does 'antes de mais, boa tarde' mean?

It is Portuguese for 'first of all, good afternoon.' The clip uses the phrase as a formal greeting, so it works as a polite hello before a video, stream or announcement, especially when the formality itself is part of the joke.

How do creators use this sound?

Creators usually place it at the start of a short video, meme or stream to greet the audience with exaggerated formality. It works best before an ordinary or absurd moment, where the contrast between the polite greeting and what follows creates the humour.

Why is this greeting clip popular in memes?

Its popularity comes from the contrast between its slow, respectful delivery and the casual content that usually follows. A simple afternoon greeting sounds like a formal speech opening, which makes even an ordinary video feel deliberately staged and funny.
