Happy learning!<\/p>\n<h3>How to Say Merry Christmas in Italian<\/h3>\n<p>The most common and direct way to say Merry Christmas in Italian is <strong><em>Buon Natale<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><em>Ti auguro Buon Natale<\/em>, I wish you a Merry Christmas.<\/p>\n<p>However, there are other expressions that are used as well.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Buone Feste<\/em><\/strong> corresponds to the English Happy Holidays and implies best wishes for a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. You could also say, <em><strong>tanti auguri di buone feste<\/strong><\/em>, best wishes for a happy holiday season.<\/p>\n<p>Slightly more formal, used in writing rather than in person: <em><strong>Auguri di un Natale sereno<\/strong><\/em> (best wishes for a peaceful Christmas). For example, if you\u2019re sending a card to someone in Italy, you could write: \u00a0\u201c<em>Auguro a te <\/em>(or \u2018<em>lei<\/em>\u2019 if you don\u2019t know the person well) <em>e alla tua<\/em> (\u2018<em>sua<\/em>\u2019 if using <em>lei<\/em>) <em>famiglia un sereno Natale e un felice anno nuovo<\/em> (I wish you and your family a peaceful Christmas and a happy New Year).<\/p>\n<p>If you want to be fancy and try a slightly longer phrase (why not?!), you could say: <em><strong>Ti auguro un Natale pieno di amore, pace e gioia sincera<\/strong><\/em>, My best wishes for a Christmas filled with love, peace and sincere joy.<\/p>\n<p>So now you have a few options for how to say Merry Christmas in Italian, but what about the \u2018Happy New Year\u2019 part?<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s take a look.<\/p>\n<h3>How to Say Happy New Year in Italian<\/h3>\n<p>Happy New Year is <em><strong>Felice Anno Nuovo<\/strong><\/em>, as in <em>Ti auguro un felice anno nuovo<\/em> (I wish you a Happy New Year). You use \u2018<em>ti<\/em>\u2019 if you\u2019re talking\/writing to one person you know well, \u2018<em>le<\/em>\u2019 if you\u2019re writing to one person you don\u2019t know very well or have a formal relationship with, and \u2018<em>vi<\/em>\u2019 if you\u2019re writing to a group of people, say a family. <em>Le auguro un felice anno nuovo<\/em>, <em>vi auguro un felice anno nuovo<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>You could also use related expressions, such as, <em><strong>Auguri per un felice 2021<\/strong> <\/em>\u2013 Best wishes for a happy 2021, or <em><strong>Auguri di buon anno<\/strong><\/em>, best wishes for a good new year.<\/p>\n<h3>How to Write a Christmas Card in Italian<\/h3>\n<p>Now let\u2019s put together what we\u2019ve seen so far to write a sample Christmas card so you can wish your loved ones Merry Christmas in Italian.<\/p>\n<p><em>Caro\/a\/i\/e <\/em>(Dear \u2013 <em>o<\/em> for male singular, <em>a<\/em> for female singular, <em>i<\/em> for plural, <em>e<\/em> for female plural) <em>\u2013 name -,<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Ti\/Vi <\/em>(<em>ti <\/em>for singular, <em>vi<\/em> for plural)<em> auguro Buon Natale e Felice Anno Nuovo!<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Con affetto <\/em>(with love),<\/p>\n<p><em>-Signature<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The version above is the simplest. If you want something fancier, here\u2019s another example.<\/p>\n<p><em>Carissimo\/i ____,<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>I miei migliori auguri per un Natale pieno di amore e pace, e per tanta gioia, serenit\u00e0 e salute nell\u2019anno nuovo<\/em> (My very best wishes for a Christmas filled with love and peace and for a New Year filled with joy, serenity and health).<\/p>\n<h3>Useful Italian Vocabulary for the Holidays<\/h3>\n<p>Now that you\u2019ve learned how to say Merry Christmas in Italian, see below a list of useful words related to the holidays \u2013 <strong><em>le feste<\/em><\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Vigilia di Natale <\/strong><\/em>\u2013 December 24, Christmas Eve<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Santo Stefano<\/strong><\/em> \u2013 December 26, a national holiday in Italy<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>San Silvestro<\/strong><\/em> \u2013 New Year\u2019s Eve<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Capodanno<\/strong><\/em> o <em><strong>primo dell\u2019anno<\/strong><\/em> \u2013 New Year\u2019s Day; in Italian, we also use Capodanno to refer to the New Year\u2019s Eve festivities, as in the most common asked question this time of the year: <em>cosa farai a Capodanno?<\/em> What are you doing on New Year\u2019s Eve?<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Epifania<\/strong><\/em> \u2013 Epiphany, January 6. And of course, <em><strong>Befana<\/strong><\/em>, the good witch who arrives on January 6 with sweet treats for children who behaved well, and coal for those who misbehaved. It\u2019s a common joke for female friends in Italy to send each other messages on the day of <em>Epifania<\/em> to wish to one another, <em>Buona Befana<\/em>!<\/p>\n<p>Now, without looking at your notes, how do you say Merry Christmas in Italian?<\/p>\n<p><em>Buon Natale, cari lettori!<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"grammarly-disable-indicator\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With the holidays around the corner, it\u2019s important for all of you Italophiles to know how to say Merry Christmas in Italian: perhaps you\u2019re planning to send a few Christmas cards to your family and friends in Italy, or perhaps you want to impress your Christmas dinner guests with a few Italian phrases\u2026whatever the reason, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":30148,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[337],"tags":[2741,1180,1178,2743,2742],"class_list":["post-30132","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-all-you-can-italy","tag-how-to-say-merry-christmas-in-italian","tag-italian-language","tag-learn-italian","tag-merry-christmas-in-italian","tag-writing-a-christmas-card-in-italian"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
