Our happy Hanukkah season is once again around the corner! Exciting as you might be, you just want to pull out a few Hebrew words to celebrate that Festival of Lights. Sorry, Diwali, it’s not you this time.

To say Happy Hanukkah in Hebrew you literally say “Hanukkah happy”. Let’s break it down.

Happy = שמח = Sameach

Hanukkah = חנוכה = Chanuka

Together they make the magic Hebrew phrase:

חנוכה שמח!

Hanukkah Sameach

It’s not a secret that Hanukkah is personally one of my favorite seasons of the year, and it’s just wonderful that it falls in December, very close to new year’s eve, which I am fanatic about as well.

Enjoy the holidays and don’t let anything stop you from being as happy as you deserve to be.
