意味
A general greeting for any holiday season.
文化的背景
The 'Fest' officially starts on the afternoon of Dec 24th. Shops close early, and the greeting 'Frohes Fest' becomes the standard way to say goodbye to anyone you won't see until after the 26th. In Austria, 'Frohes Fest' is common, but you will also frequently hear 'Schöne Weihnachten'. The focus is heavily on the family dinner on the 24th. In Swiss German, you might hear 'Schöni Wiehnachte', but in formal writing or high German contexts, 'Frohes Fest' remains a standard, elegant choice.
The 'Gleichfalls' Trick
If someone says 'Frohes Fest' to you and you're nervous, just say 'Danke, gleichfalls!' (Thanks, likewise!). It works every time.
Timing is Everything
Don't say this in November. It makes you look like you're in too much of a hurry for the year to end!
