Поздравления, праздники, конечно, это дело хорошее, но случается иногда, что приходится и “хеппибездить”. Наверное, все догадались, что речь пойдет о том, как поздравить на английском языке.
Если по роду своей работы вам часто приходится иметь дело с иностранцами всех мастей и расцветок,
можно и просто обязательно нужно пользоваться английским, как языком международного общения. Или когда необходимо поздравить близкого вам человека, коллегу, знакомого, живущего за границей. В конце концов, сегодня английский – это модно! Некоторые считают, что для того, чтобы поздравить на английском языке с Днем рождения, с Новым годом, Рождеством, свадьбой много ума не нужно. Кто же не слышал: “Happy birthday to you”? На самом деле все не так-то просто – существует масса нюансов.
Так, например, официальные рукописные поздравления на английском языке пишут на особой,
красиво оформленной бумаге. Содержание таких поздравлений на английском краткое и в высшей степени политкорректное. Образцом традиционного краткого текста поздравления на английском языке является известное всем «Merry Christmas», которое используется во всех англоязычных государствах. В кратком написании этой фразы «Merry Xmas», буква X символизирует образ Христа, и «Happy Christmas» наиболее часто употребляют в Ирландии и Англии. Слово “Christmas” из-за политкорректности в поздравлениях на английском часто пропускается, а поздравляют с зимними праздниками так: «Happy Holidays» или «Season’s greetings». Такие пожелания хороши для официального поздравления на английском языке, или же, когда поздравления на английском адресуются бизнес-партнеру, особенно малознакомому. В Великобритании и США Новый год не столь популярен, как Рождество. Поэтому новогодние поздравления на английском языке часто совмещают с рождественскими поздравлениями.
Знание английского языка помогает общаться со всем миром намного проще и понятнее.
Как только стало возможным, особенно в последние годы, многие люди обзавелись друзьями, знакомыми из разных стран, которые говорят на различных языках, и один-единственный способ продолжить общение с ними – это английский язык. Зачем терять приятное знакомство, приобретенное на отдыхе или в лагере, или просто во время поездки в командировку, если можно его поддерживать, отсылая на английском языке поздравления. Кроме того, вы можете процитировать поздравления на английском учителю английского, другу, подруге, женщине, мужчине, любимому человеку. Хорошо, что праздников у нас немало, и все они являются отличным поводом, чтоб написать письмо, смс или открытку, поинтересовавшись здоровьем, делами, настроением ваших друзей. Дальнее расстояние между вами сотрется, когда ваш адресат получит душевные и приятные прикольные, официальные, красивые, деловые поздравления на английском с юбилеем в прозе и стихах, где вы расскажите все то, что порой трудно высказать по телефону.

A brand New Year arrived last night;
It came while I was waiting.
But I did not hear the horns or shouts
Of people celebrating.
Because, you see, I fell asleep
Before the hour, when
The old year silently passed out
And the New Year entered in.
But I have a clean new calendar
Which hangs before my eyes
And every day that’s listed
Will hold a new surprise.
***
Side by side we’ve been there for each other,
But also deep withn the heart, when we were apart.
Such a good and strong friendship,
Let it be forever.
No matter what the future may hold,
Lets keep our friendship forever.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
