Viết lời chúc mừng có thể khó khăn, và lời chúc sinh nhật cũng không phải là ngoại lệ.
Để giúp người học tiếng Anh viết được những lời chúc sinh nhật tốt nhất, chúng tôi đã tổng hợp danh sách các gợi ý dưới đây, được phân loại theo từng loại thông điệp. Bạn có thể viết chúng vào thiệp sinh nhật tiếp theo của mình hoặc đơn giản là sử dụng chúng như nguồn cảm hứng!
Type 1: Wish them a nice day
The point of birthday greetings is to wish someone a nice day. Of course, you can say, “I hope you have a nice day” or simply “Have a nice day.” But why choose these when there are more interesting options? Try one of the phrases below instead:
Wishing you the best birthday ever!
This message is simple and direct.
Hope it’s a good one!
English speakers often say this along with the standard birthday greeting: “Happy birthday! Hope it’s a good one!”
This means “I hope it’s a good birthday.” Notice that the "I" has been omitted from this phrase. This gives the greeting a more casual and friendly feeling.
Hope you enjoy your special day.
It's common to refer to occasions like birthdays and anniversaries as "special days." This can help you avoid repeating the same word multiple times in the same message.
I hope all your birthday wishes come true!
This phrase comes from the custom of making wishes on birthdays. This is a good phrase to use with kids, but it can still be fun to send to adult friends.
Type 2: Wish them a good future
The only thing better than wishing someone a good day is wishing them a good year! Here are some great options to try:
Wishing you an amazing year ahead!
I hope you have an amazing year!
Wishing you many happy, healthy years to come.
You can customize your birthday message by replacing “happy” and “healthy” with other positive adjectives, such as “successful,” “fun-filled,” or “exciting” — whatever you think your friend will like.
Wishing you an amazing day and a wonderful year ahead!
Don’t forget that you can also wish people a great day and year at the same time, as you can see above.
Wishing you all the best on your birthday!
When you wish someone “all the best,” you are hoping that all the best things happen to them.
Type 3: When you forgot to wish someone a happy birthday
Unfortunately, we don't always remember to send a birthday greeting on someone's actual birthday. In these cases, what can we say? Here are some options:
Hope you had a wonderful birthday!
This is simply “Hope you have a wonderful birthday” in the past tense. You can put some of the previous phrases in past tense for the same effect. For example:
Hope you enjoyed your special day!
Hope it was a good one!
Happy Belated Birthday!
“Happy belated birthday” is a popular English phrase for wishing someone a late birthday. For example:
“Happy belated birthday! Hope you had a wonderful day!”
“Happy belated birthday! Hope you ate lots of cake!”
Wish I could have been there to celebrate with you!
If your friend threw a birthday party and you couldn’t go, this is a great message to send.
On the other hand, if you cannot attend a party that has not happened yet, you can say, “Wish I could be there to celebrate with you!”
