Dubai Forums Dubai Discussions Dubai General Chat

I though it would be cool and maybe even handy to start listing all the different seasons greetings in different languages and have them translated.

Dubai is a multicultural city, so i thought it would be nice to learn other greetings for this time of year. You may even use it.

So lets spread the love in different languages. I'll start;
