معنی
A greeting for the new year.
زمینه فرهنگی
New Year's Eve is a time for 'kūčiukai' leftovers but also for a fresh feast. It is common to stay up until dawn. The main celebration happens at Cathedral Square, where a 3D projection on the Cathedral wall often counts down to the New Year. In communities in Chicago or London, 'Laimingų Naujųjų Metų' is a vital link to heritage, often said during community 'baliai' (balls). It is standard to send digital holiday cards with this phrase to all clients and partners.
The 'Su' Shortcut
If you forget the genitive endings, just say 'Su Naujais!' (Soo Now-yice). It's easier and very common.
Case Matters
Don't say 'Laimingas Naujas Metas'. It sounds like you're reading a dictionary entry.
