   There is a general greeting that we use in Greece;
Χρόνια πολλά (HRO-nia po-LA) Play Sound.
It means "many years". We use it for wishing : Happy birthday, happy name day, or we greet with this phrase during major holidays.

  Also the phrase: να ζήσετε (na ZI-sete) (you) Play Sound or να ζήσουν (na ZI-soun) (they) Play Sound means "to live many years" and we use it as the "congratulations" in events such as births, weddings or engagements.
