It's not "good afternoon" - it's "have a good afternoon".

sofibu,

As far as I know, είσαι is the verb "to be" in the present tense, 2nd person singular!

Hello Goncin,
that's true είσαι is the present tense, 2nd person singular of the verb to be, but "Πως είσαι σήμερα;" means "como estas hoje?". In english the phrase "How are you?" means how does a person look, what is his appearance , for example a possible answer would be "i am tall/ i am beautiful/ i am slim ect. If they want to ask how does he feel they ask how is he doing.

Hi sofibu,

The question : "How are you today? is perfectly correct. It means "How are you doing today.?" "How are you feeling today?"

I think you misunderstood the meaning.
When you want to know about someone's appearance you ask: "What do you look like?"
