Learn the Difference Between The English Phrases HAPPY CHRISTMAS and MERRY CHRISTMAS

So as you are learning English

you'll probably hear people say Happy Christmas.

And sometimes you'll hear people say Merry Christmas

and you might be wondering

which is the correct thing to say at Christmas time.

Well, here's how it works.

If you are learning British English,

you will probably say Happy Christmas

around this time of year.

If on the other hand

you are learning Canadian English or American English,

you are more likely to say Merry Christmas.

So that's the only difference.

They mean the same thing.

It's simply something people say at this time of year.

They will say Merry Christmas or Happy Christmas

depending on which kind of English you are learning.

I generally say Merry Christmas to people.

And I actually wanna end this video,

this is just a short lesson by the way

by saying Merry Christmas to all of you.

I just wish all of you a good Christmas season.

I'm not sure if you celebrate Christmas or not

or if you get time off from work or not

but I just hope that wherever you are in the world

and whatever you are doing over the next few days

that you just have an enjoyable time.

I hope you find time to spend time

with family or friends in a safe way.

I hope that you enjoy a little bit of time off work.

I hope that you just find time to relax a little bit

and reflect on life.

And certainly I wish you this,

I wish you the very best end to the year 2020.

I do wanna thank all of you as well

as I look back over the past year of making videos

on this short English lesson channel.

I made a little change in the summer

where I started to make the videos longer.

And many of you obviously really enjoy that.

I know a few people still miss

the really short English lessons

but I think four minutes, isn't too bad.

And I can tell when I look at

the amount of people watching each lesson

that people do enjoy them

because the graph seems to be going up

which is really cool.

So again, I just wanna thank all of you

for helping make this channel successful.

I do wanna thank the people who have become members

who have joined and support me

in the work I do to make these videos.

That's awesome as well

but mostly I just wanna say, thanks for watching.

The more you watch it kind of gives me energy

and makes me excited to make more lessons.

So thanks for watching.

Thanks above all for improving

your knowledge of the English language.

I know it's hard work, I appreciate it.

I see so many of you leaving comments

and I can see that your English is getting better

in the way you write those comments.

Many of you have been around for a very long time

either on this channel or on my bigger channel.

So I just wanna say thank you.

So Merry Christmas to everybody,

have a great time over the next few days.

And I just wanna wish you a good new year's as well.

Although I'll be making videos close to the new year.

So maybe I'll save that wish

for the next video or the one after that, we'll see.

Anyways, Bob, the Canadian here.

Once again, thanks for watching,

have a great weekend.

I'll see you on Monday with another new English lesson.
