“Merry Christmas” in Chinese

Merry Christmas in Chinese is "圣诞快乐 (Shèngdàn kuàilè)" and its literal meaning is to be happy on the birth of a saint.

"圣 (shèng)" in Chinese is a title of respect for honorific figures or things. For example, Confucius is one of the first "圣人 (shèngrén)" saints in Chinese history and so is addressed with this honorific title. Another example is that marriage is "神圣的 (shénshèng de)" sacred. "诞 (dàn)" means geniture and we usually say "诞生 (dànshēng)" to be born in Chinese. Therefore, "圣诞 (shèngdàn)" refers to the birth of a saint, specifically, Jesus.

December 27, 2016 – Pic of Chinese decorations I took some pictures of Christmas decorations going up in China before I left. They hadn’t finished yet in the first picture. It’s also an upgrade from the 7up tree that they had last year. It wasn’t awful but having an entire tree made up of plastic inflatable bottles looks a bit tacky. But, hey can’t beat free advertising right? The other pics are of me decorating my school before I left on the 21st.
