Happy New Year!


BTW, here's how to say Happy New Year in different languages.

French – Bonne Année.

Spanish – ¡Feliz Año Nuevo!

Welsh – Blwyddyn Newydd Dda.

Italian – Buon anno.

German – Frohes Neues Jahr.

Dutch – Gelukkig Nieuwjaar.

Icelandic – Gleðilegt nýtt ár.

Japanese (although this one is customary after midnight) – あけましておめでとう (Akemashite omedetou)

Mandarin – Xin Nian Kuai Le – (sheen nian kwai luh)

Cantonese - San Nin Fai Lok – (san knee fy lock)

Turkish – Mutlu yıllar Czech – Sťastný nový rok

Danish – Godt nytår

Finnish – Hyvää uutta vuotta

Norwegian – Godt nytt år

Polish – Szczesliwego Nowego Roku

I found the previous list at the Daily Mirror: https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/happy-new-year-different-languages-9501632.

If you want to practice with a longer list, please see here (in Spanish): https://okdiario.com/howto/como-decir-feliz-ano-nuevo-distintos-idiomas-3520433

Don't know why two different newspapers in UK and Spain were so interested in the same topic on Dec 31st 2018...  ;D

Happy New Year, again!  O0
