Do you have foreign friends, partner, colleagues or neighbours?
Normally you communicate with them in common language between you and them, like English.
But, why don’t you express your congratulations in their native language when you have something to congratulate them?
When they find a new job, pass the exam, get married, have new family members…there are a lot of occasions to congratulate people. If you tell it in their language, the words go to their heart directly and they will be even happier.
Here you will find how to say “Congratulations!” in 50 different languages.
