From me to you, here’s an ever-growing list of how to say “Merry Christmas” in different languages!
For several years from 2012 to 2020, I did a Facebook post with Merry Christmas in several languages. My favourite part is how people suggested new ones each year.
Well, after a few years break, I’m restarting the tradition this year! So, without further adieu, here you go!
