Congratulations on the day of the city in English. Happy birthday greetings in English

Someone's birthday is always a special day for that person, and receiving congratulations remains an invariably pleasant moment. Most often, we say wishes or sign postcards in our native Russian language. But sometime you may need a birthday greeting in English. For example:

- you are writing to a friend or girlfriend from abroad;

- congratulate your language teacher;

- sign a postcard to a Russian-speaking friend who is studying English, like you;

- and many other similar cases.

In such solemn situations, it can be scary to make a mistake in spelling or grammar, and even just use wrong word or expression. After all, such “little things” can spoil the whole impression that you wanted to make. But don't be discouraged: if you don't know enough yet foreign language(or just eloquence is not your forte), ready-made congratulation texts will always help out.

Common expressions

In this section you will find phrases that can be used to congratulate any person, regardless of gender, age, and who they are to you.

Remember that in the translation the word "your" is given as an example, and it can easily be changed to "your" if necessary, if polite treatment is meant.

To the beautiful ladies

A congratulation to a woman should be made saturated with emotions, poetic images or even beautiful metaphors.

• You are the sunniest and most inspiring woman who shines 365 days a year but never as bright as today. Happy birthday! (You are the sunniest and most inspiring woman who shines 365 days a year, but today is especially bright. Happy birthday!)
• May the stars of your good luck and happiness follow you – today as every day. Have a wonderful birthday! (May the stars of your luck and happiness accompany you - today and every day. Have a wonderful birthday!)
• Light up your dreams like candles on your birthday cake and may they make your life warm and bright! (Light your dreams like candles on a birthday cake, let them warm and light up your life!)
• By signing a birthday card for a girl, you can wish her a lot of nice things. May the candles on your birthday cake light an endless flame of joy, success, positive spirit and inspiration to your life! (Let the candles on your birthday cake light an endless flame of joy, success, positive attitude and inspiration in your life!)
• And you can tell for the next (or for the first) time how important this person is to you. I wish a fantastic birthday to the most beautiful and gorgeous girl in the whole world! (I wish a wonderful birthday to the most beautiful and wonderful girl in the whole world!)
• I'm sending the wishes full of love to you, my treasure! (I send loving wishes to you, my treasure!)
• Having a friend like you is a special present from life. May your birthday be as shiny, sunny and filled with love as you are! (Having a friend like you is a special gift from life. May your birthday be as radiant, sunny and filled with love as you are!)

For men

In this case, something less ornate and a little more concise will do, so that the meaning of the congratulations is immediately clear.

• I wish you cool, awesome, fantastic birthday and may your life be just as that! (I wish you a great, amazing, wonderful birthday, and may your whole life be the same!)
• Have plenty of health and a great deal of wealth! Happy birthday! (Much health and great wealth! Happy birthday!)
• I wish you simple joys in life! (I wish the simple joys of life!)
• If the congratulation is intended for a beloved man, then it is good to add a touch of romance to it.
• My warmest wishes, love and kisses for you, sweetheart! (My warmest wishes, love and kisses for you, love!)
• Happy birthday to the man of my dreams! Let's make this day to remember. (Happy birthday, the man of my dreams! Let's make this day unforgettable!)

Humorous congratulations

If the person you're congratulating loves a good joke, why not give him or her a treat? A comic congratulation cheers up, and no matter what language it is written in.

Choose the text that suits the occasion, change it a little or even combine several, if the level of knowledge of English allows. Let your addressee be surprised and delighted to receive such a non-standard congratulation on their holiday.

So, birthday!

And 99.9 percent of us usually congratulate our loved ones or colleagues in a rather fiery and long speeches. We wish you health, and happiness, and love, and flowers, and joy, and ... a lot of everything.

There is no similar tradition in American and British culture.

Usually, native speakers themselves, Americans and British, wish happy birthday in a very banal and short way:

Happy Birthday! Happy Birthday!
Very often in letters and SMS they shorten this phrase and write: “Happy Bday!”
