Title	salut et bonne fÃªte de l'aÃ¯d
Text Submitted by Cinderella	Source language: French Translated by exar bonne fÃªte de l'aÃ¯d
Remarks about the translation	saha aidek veut dire que tu l'adresses Ã une seule personne

Title	happy eid ul-fitr
Translation English Translated by N_Kontovas	Target language: English happy eid ul-fitr
Remarks about the translation	Going by the French. You could very well just say "happy eid", but it's not as clear what you're referencing in English without context, and the holiday is generally known in English by the full "Eid ul-Fitr". Suggestions welcome on that point.

	N_Kontovas Number of messages: 2	Eid ul-Fitr is the English spelling of a Muslim holiday. Actually, I noticed a mistake in my translation: I was unaware that there are multiple holidays known as "Eid". Because of the lack of knowledge of Muslim culture in America, this phrase is a bit awkward to translate; normally, we wouldn't just say "Happy Eid". Not sure what to do about this.
