Note: In some languages the accents are important, for example in Spanish you really do need the tilde over the ‘n’ in Año. Ano without a tilde, has the most unfortunate meaning happy new anus.
Happy New Year
One theme you may notice is variations on the word new: Nuevo, novo, nova, novan, nou and nuwe.
P.S. Please write to Will and Guy if you have any examples of Happy New Year in other languages.
P.P.S. Thank you Bill for writing in with the Arabic: Sana Sa-eeda
