ni hao, nai nai Claudia,

xie xie ni, wo zhu ni xin nian kuai le.

The correct sentences should be:

1. I wish you a big happiness! = Wo3 zhu4 ni3 tian1 tian1 kai1 xin1 (literally it means happy everyday)

2. I wish you an happy new year = wo3 zhu4 ni3 xin1 nian2 kuai4 le4 (wo3 zhu4 ni3 could be omitted)

3. Your father is 87, that’s great. My grandma is 83. She was born in the year of Dragon.

According to Chinese tradition and based on the lunar calendar, the first day of 2010 begins on 14th of February this year (every year is different)

I wish you and your family all the best in the year of 2010. Xin nian kuai le!

Say hello to your son and daughter in law.

Benny Feng
