意思
Expressing congratulations, often for a success or achievement.
文化背景
In Spain, 'Enhorabuena' is extremely common and used for almost any success, large or small. It is considered very polite and warm. Mexicans tend to use '¡Muchas felicidades!' much more often than 'Enhorabuena', which can sound a bit formal or 'Spanish' to them. In Argentina, 'Felicitaciones' is the standard for formal achievements, while 'Enhorabuena' is recognized but used less in casual speech. Similar to Mexico, 'Felicidades' is the go-to, but 'Enhorabuena' is frequently seen in formal letters and news reports.
The 'Spain' Marker
Using 'Enhorabuena' correctly is one of the fastest ways to sound like a native speaker from Spain.
Birthday Blunder
Never use this for birthdays unless the person did something amazing on their birthday, like winning a marathon.
