English term or phrase: Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
Hi everybody!

I've already seen the following translation in Proz but I would like to know if there are some accents left:

Noeliniz Ve Yeni Yiliniz Kutlu Olsun

Thank you very much but I would like to be sure about what I print in myu Christmas greetings :)

Thanks
Ruth
Turkish translation:Noeliniz ve Yeni Yılınız Kutlu Olsun
Explanation:
"ve" should be typed in lowercase, and the correct characters in the second word is as above - maybe you can copy-paste it, or find another solution, i don't know

you can also say

Mutlu Noeller ve İyi Seneler
(İyi Seneler and İyi Yıllar are the same, but the first one wouldn't create any character problems for you)

and many others will be suggested shortly, i believe :-)

oh yes, İyi Seneler creates a problem too; ok, if no other solution can be found, you can type it as Iyi :-((

merry christmas and happy new year
just a comment


Explanation:
Christmas is not celebrated in Turkey. Therefore if you are sending it to Turkish people just use "Mutlu yıllar" or "Mutlu seneler" or "Yeni Yılınız Kutlu Olsun" or other versions proposed.
