Winter quotes in English with translation. Beautiful English quotes about life

The New Year is rapidly approaching: shelves in shopping centers are emptying, the streets are being transformed, houses are filled with pine and tangerine aromas.

Corporate Happy New Year greetings in English

As for corporate congratulations, you should be more restrained. The fervor of inspiration needs to be moderated a little and business connections in the new year should be emphasized in the wishes. We offer you these options as examples.

I wish you a wonderful New Year filled with abundance, joy, and treasured moments. May the New Year be your best year yet!

I hope the New Year will be a year of great happiness and success for you. Have a wonderful celebration!

I wish you the best of business luck this happy New Year! With hope for further fruitful cooperation. Mr.X

As you may have noticed, there are no clear and strict templates for personal or business congratulations. After all, it’s not a matter of form, but of style: business is more neutral and practical. Personal wishes, on the contrary, imply emotionality and “spaciousness” of wishes.

English words (New Year Vocabulary) will help you talk about how you are going to celebrate the New Year. And here is a short text in English about how the New Year is celebrated.

Every country has its national holidays, but there are also holidays that are common for many countries. New Year's Day is the first holiday of each New Year. In Russia it is the most popular holiday, but in the West people pay more attention to Christmas.

New Year is always connected with our new hopes and dreams. Everyone hopes that next new year will be better than the last one. As usual people make New Year Resolutions, they promise to start doing morning exercises, to eat healthier food. Unfortunately people don’t always keep them.

The celebration of this holiday begins on New Year’s Eve, that is, on the 31st of December. At home people stay up until midnight and much later. They light colored lamps on New Year Tree and have late dinner with champagne. Sometimes they just watch TV or go out for late walk. Everybody gets presents.

In Scotland New Year's Eve is called Hogmanay. Also the Scottish have the custom of First-Footing.

Most differences in celebrating New Year are connected with a meal or special food. For example, in Switzerland special bread, rich in butter, eggs and raisin is baked and a roasted goose is cooked. In Spain there is a custom to eat 12 grapes at midnight. In Greece some people play cards believing that they will be lucky the whole year if they win. In Russia the traditional dish for the holiday is “Russian salad” (Olivier).

Christmas and New Year are coming soon! We urgently need to buy gifts and look for decent congratulations to friends, acquaintances and business partners. The second can be a problem if you need to send congratulations in English. I will try to somehow make this stressful time easier for you and in the continuation of the article Congratulations in English I provide a list of universal Merry Christmas and New Year greetings in English.

Please note:

1. Christmas, December 25, is a more important holiday for Europeans, Americans and British. Therefore, do not forget to congratulate your friends, family and colleagues.
2. You can freely combine these greetings, and also replace Christmas with New Year.
3. How to end your congratulations:

Informal: Yours / All the best / With lots of greetings, Your / Love + your name

Formal: Kind regards / Sincerely yours / Yours sincerely / Yours truly / Yours faithfully + your name

I. Friends and acquaintances
