Happy x-mass and merry new year
Kwanza naomba niirekebishe kwa kusema iwe "Happy x-mas and a Merry new year"
Hio itakua - Syntactically correct ila Semantically wrong..... Au wee waonaje Mtazamaji?

There is nothing wrong whatsoever with "Happy Christmas and a Merry New Year"
In British English, "Happy Christmas" is a standard Christmas greeting. Merry can be equated to happy ( they are both adjectives) so instead of saying "Happy New Year" one can say "Merry New Year".
It may sound strange because it is not used conventionally. Like saying "Happy Morning" instead of "Good Morning".

Ashadii napenda ulivyo so democratic ila mimi hapo kwa umombo sijui naunga unga tu cha kupunguzia viizingiti huku mtaani.
But nadhani tukifuata protocol tukubaliane na wataalam tu Merry x mas na Happy new yia ndio sahihi na si kinyume chake
Syntax Sijui ndio sarufi maumbo na semantic labda ndio sarufi maana. au we sema tu sintaksi na semantiki Ngoja waje wataalam. ila wakinikosoa sana na wewe wakosoe.Preta said:

In blue I do agree.... For the simple fact that it is syntactically valid as much as Semantically iffy - A syntactically valid statement no matter strange in one ear, is usually correct.
In red I do agree too... For you have just snatched up a part of Mtazamaji's phrase thus sounds OK and infact correct; Where as it is sytactically and semantically wrong when complete i.e "Happy x-mass and merry new year'" as opposed to "Happy x-mas and a Merry new year"

leo nimejifunza msamiati "hodgepodge and potpourri". kusema ukweli nilikuwa siyajui, imebidi niya-google
hodgepodge=a heterogeneous mixture na pia wengine wametoa definition hii "disorderly mass or collection of things"
potpourri= a mixture of dried, naturally fragrant plant material, used to provide a gentle natural scent in houses.

Hahahaahahh AshaDii mi naeleza bana si unaona mi nimekwambia changu cha kuunga unga. Kwangu nilikosea siku moja wa hayo maneno ya Merry na Happy basi wataalam niliokuwa nao wakanicheka.Na mimina nikaubali na nikaomba msamaha kuwa nimekosea lugha
Sasa naona strangly kwa mujibu wa eelewa wa kiranga There is nothing wrong whatsoever with "Happy Christmas and a Merry New Year" but dah merry new year
Anyway nitaenda niombe msamaha wangu back. Its hard kuwa na chango wa maana kwa sisi tulisoma Mr and Mrs Daudi Neema, Baraka and Musa. Tena darasani kuna kitbu kimoja tu.
Ukienda sekondary zile shule za wakulima. Mkali wa umombo the best u can perform ni kuibuka na C.
