For Indonesian, you've only got Happy New Year. Merry Christmas is 'Selamat Natal.'

Hi 104833. I'm going to move the above to the main page of the language clinic. In order for me to give you credit for all this work (it's really good by the way), you'll have to edit your home page. even if you just change the text to hello, anyone seeing your name will therefore be able to link to your page for any other work you're going to do here.

It's well worth doing this by the way, as it gives you a great way to interact with the other researchers.

Oops, sorry, it's actually 'Selamat Hari Natal.'

Ta Shelley nee Rangakoo,

for your uptodate update on the Indonesian greet, I've just left a message with the Ed if he can update the list he's placed on the main language page.

Cheers John

NORSE-DANISH ???? That must have been a couple of hundred years ago. The correct Danish is GLÆDELIG JUL OG GODT NYTÅR.

Thanks.

A slight to correction to the Swedish phrase is in place.

What it should say is: God Jul och ett Gott Nytt År.
