معنی
Greeting for the new year.
زمینه فرهنگی
Serbians often celebrate New Year twice: once on January 1st and again on January 14th (the Orthodox New Year). Similar to Serbia, New Year is a massive public celebration with outdoor concerts in coastal towns like Budva. In multi-ethnic cities like Sarajevo, you will hear both 'Srećna' and 'Sretna' depending on the speaker's background, but both are welcomed. In places like Chicago or Vienna, the phrase is a vital link to cultural identity during the winter months.

Case Matters
Remember to use 'Srećnu Novu godinu' if you start the sentence with 'Želim ti'.
