Gong Hei Fat Choi!
Wow but there are a lot of ways to write that! Each of China's regional languages and their variants has a different way of pronouncing and spelling the phrase, which literally translates to 'Wishing You Prosperity'.
I tend to go with the Cantonese pronunciation I've been most exposed to. Sometimes I spell 'Choi' as 'Choy' but generally I use the same phrase the same way every year.
This year is extra cool for us geeky gamer types as it is the Year of the Dragon and Dragons are pretty damn cool.
Happy Lunar New Year everyone!
