If bạn want to wish "Happy New năm " to someone in Greece, then bạn should say: Kali Hronia.
For "Happy New năm Day" in Greek bạn should say "Kali Protohronia".
If your friend is called Manolis hoặc Hristos, his nameday is on December 25 (Christmas day). Wish him "Hronia Polla" (Many Happy Returns) for his nameday.
The same applies if your friend is called Vassilis, Yiannis hoặc Fotis. Vassilis nameday is on January 1, Fotis' nameday is on January 6, Yiannis' nameday is on January 7.
During giáng sinh holiday period, which lasts from December 24 until January 6, plus a couple of weeks past that, it is a custom in Greece to wish "Hronia Polla" to the people bạn meet. So, if bạn meet someone in the morning, the proper way to greet him hoặc her is: Kalimera, Hronia Polla! (Good morning, Many Happy Returns).
