The Japanese one is way wrong.
It's merii kurisumasu (メリー・クリスマス)
Shinnen is New Year's Day. (nen = year) |

It all came from a book. It's called "Christmas Arund The World".  |

| I wish Christmas would stop existing so my dreams of a secular socialist democracy could come into fruition. |

Belgium and Netherlands should be the same either "Zalig Kerstfeest" or "Hartelijke Kerstgroeten" (I've never heard that one before in real life).
And they speak two different languages in Belgium: Dutch and French. |

Dutch version isn't right 
it should be
Gelukkig Kerstfeest
or
Fijne Kerstdagen
or somthing like that
NOT Hartelijke Kerstroeten :S
'Kerstroeten' isn't even a word

They're not. In the USA people say "Merry Christmas" but in England and Australia people say "Happy" because merry can mean being drunk. |
