Bonne année et meilleurs voeux pour 2015!
Most people in France would say
"Bonne année
et bonne santé!"
meaning "Happy new year and good health!"
We talk a lot about new year's
resolution as well. What are your resolutions for the new year? : "Quelles
sont tes/vos résolutions
pour la nouvelle année?"
People celebrate on the new year's eve
and do the countdown too with bubbly champagne in hand and kiss/hand shake when
midnight rings. With the modern technology, the networks are often jammed as
everyone's calling or messaging their family and friends!
The 1st day of the year is a public holiday.
