The old year is finally coming to an end. Let’s hope the upcoming year will be one filled with happiness, safety, and prosperity.

Today's Japanese phrase is: “Yoi otoshi wo!" = Have a happy new year! ("yoi" = good, "otoshi"= a year, “….wo" = have a ...)

With wish for a happy new year, let’s exchange our greetings in Japanese.

I can’t wait to see you again in the next year with some more nice Japanese expressions.

I wish you a very, very happy new year! Yoi otoshi wo!
