Signification
A standard Christmas greeting.
Contexte culturel
Christmas Eve (Štědrý den) is the main event. Families eat carp and potato salad. The greeting 'Veselé Vianoce' is used, which is the Slovak equivalent of the Czech phrase. The Polish equivalent is 'Wesołych Świąt', which is slightly more general ('Happy Holidays'). Christmas is celebrated on January 7th due to the Orthodox calendar, so the greeting is used later.
Plurality
Always remember that Vánoce is plural. You will never see it in the singular.
Timing
Czechs are very precise about holiday greetings. Don't say it too early in November!
