mastrmindalliance Posted December 24, 2010 Report Share Posted December 24, 2010 Merry Christmas Everyone! I've sent out many Christmas greetings this year in a few languages: Maligayang Pasko (Tagalog), yē dàn jié (Mandarin), Selamat Hari Natal (Malay), Frohe Weihnachten (German) and Feliz Natal (Brazilian Portugese). This got me wondering how the seasonal greetings are uttered around the world. I figured there's no better place to ask than here... So, how do you say it? Also, feel free to correct any of mine above and if you celebrate it - Have a great day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
