One of my best friends is getting married and I would like to write him a card wishing him the best. How do I say the following?
Jane and I congratulate you (pozdravlaem?) on your wedding and wish you success (zhelayu vam uspeha?) for many years to come.
Also, I would like to gift them some money. Is there any superstition against an odd or even amount in Russian culture?
Моя версия:
(My version:)
Мы с Джейн поздравляем вас с бракосочетанием и желаем чтобы все дальнейшие годы с вами об руку шли Успех и Благополучие.
Нечётное - предпочтительнее.
(Odd is preferrable)
That is a word we don't listen every day. Ого!Quote:
