"Lloista joulua" is in Finnish, and it translates to "Merry Christmas" in English. It is a common holiday greeting used in Finland during the Christmas season.
Finnish, perhaps.
"hauskaa" = fun
"Merry Christmas" is called "hyvaa joulua" in Finnish because "hyvaa" means "good" and "joulua" sort of means "Christmas". More specifically the word "joulua" means Yule in English. The term Yule or Yule-tide comes from an old Germanic midwinter festival (involving a sacrificial feast), that has absorbed into Christmas. Originally the festival was celebrated between late December and early January on a date determinded by the lunar Germanic calendar, but the festival was later placed on the 25th of December when the Christian calendar was adopted. The term is still used in the Nordic Countries to refer to Christmas. As in Finland they use the same term in countries like Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Iceland. In Finland they say "hyvaa joulua" (as you know); in Norway nad Sweden they say "god jul"; in Denmark they say "glædelig jul"; and in Iceland they say "gledileg jol". The term meaning the same thing ("good Yule/Christmas") in all these languages.
Hyvää joulua! (Merry Christmas!)
