Dutch Holiday Phrases
Happy New Year |
Gelukkig nieuwjaar |
| Happy Easter | Zalig pasen / Vrolijk Pasen |
| Merry Christmas | Zalig kerstfeest |
| Happy Birthday | Hartelijk gefeliciteerd (met je verjaardag) |
Zalig is the word traditionally used by Catholics (the Pope uses it) when saying something in Dutch at Christmas. Protestants say Prettige kerstdagen (nice), Gelukkig kerstfeest (happy), or Vrolijk kerstfeest (cheerful); a lot of variation is possible.
Happy birthday can also be shortened to just gefeliciteerd.
