Common greeting for someone's birthday.
Contexto cultural
It is common to sing 'Vse najboljše za te' to the tune of the English 'Happy Birthday to You'. Turning 50 is a huge deal called 'Abraham'. The greeting is often more enthusiastic. Handshaking is mandatory when saying 'Vse najboljše' in person. Name days (godovanje) are still celebrated in some parts, using the same phrase.
Keep it simple
If you forget the full phrase, just 'Vse najboljše!' is always correct and polite.
