Merry Christmas!  Why am I saying this now?  Until the 4th Century, BC, Christians around the globe celebrated Christmas on January 6.  The Catholics changed it to Dec. 25, but the Armenian Orthodox Church did not. 

"Merry Christmas in Armenian" is said like this:

"Kreesdos Dzunav Yev Haydnetsav!  Orhnyal eh Haydnootyoonun Kreesdosee."

which means, "Christ is born and revealed, Blessed is the revelation of Christ."
