Business Builder: Making Christmas Time Office Greetings Easy

Happy Christmas and Thank You!
I’m happy and Merry, but I’m British English and we traditionally say Happy Christmas. It is more American to say Merry Christmas. In 2024 though, it’s so normal to say Merry Christmas that lots of English people don’t know about Happy Christmas. So, say whatever you like!
