Hello, I would like to know how to say in phonetic "Merry Christmas" in these languages: Bulgarian, russian, hebrew, arabic, chinese, japanese, vietnamese and korean. Also I would like to know if the word "Christmas" exists in every language as it is not sure that people in every country even know what it is, particularly for people who are not aware of our occidental culture.
Do you know languages that do not have a word to translate "Christmas"?
Thanks and Merry Christmas to all.
