Merry Christmas And Happy Christmas

From the day we started learning English, we are wondering how to greet others, especially during the holiday season. We know that the new year, and we say happy new year, greeting to lovers, saying happy Valentine\'s day. In short, no matter what’s the festival, we always use “happy”. But why we don’t use “Happy”when greeting Christmas? Just use it uniquely

M-E-R-R-Y Christmas?

If you ask our Chinese English teacher, you must be able to hear the most powerful answer in the world: This is a fixed match. Actually, the reason as following:

Saying \'Merry Christmas\' rather than \'Happy Christmas\' seems to go back several hundred years. It\'s first recorded in 1534 when John Fisher (an English Catholic Bishop in the 1500s) wrote it in a Christmas letter to Thomas Cromwell: "And this our Lord God send you a merry Christmas, and a comfortable, to your heart’s desire."

In the English language of the time, the phrase \'Rest You Merry\' didn\'t mean simply to be happy; \'rest\' meant "to keep, cause to continue to remain" and \'merry\' could mean "pleasant, bountiful, prosperous".

The first Christmas Card, sent in 1843 by Sir Henry Cole, had this wording on it: "A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to You".

But whether “Merry”Christmas or “Happy”Christmas, The festive atmosphere and happiness are the most important.

At this moment, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all of you guys, and we wish you happiness and prosperity in the year ahead. --Guangzhou Huaisheng Packaging,. Co Ltd.
