Konbanwa, spelled Konbanha, is a greeting used in the evening. It is
pronounced _ko-m-ba-n-wa._

I don't know if it's my hearing, but to me, the second _n_ is silent.
Sometimes I hear it as _ko-m-báo-wa_ instead of _ko-m-ba-n-wa._

Is this a speaking preference or a false assumption of mine? Thanks!

This [discussion](http://forum.wordreference.com/threads/n-sound-in-
konbanwa.3028130/) might help. I think the _n_ that you're not hearing is just
being nasalized instead.
