Shana Tova
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Shana Tova (pronounced [ˈʃanaˈtova]) is the traditional greeting on Rosh Hashanah which in Hebrew means "A Good Year." Alternatives are, Shana Tova Umetukah for "A Good and Sweet Year." Because Jews are being judged by God for the coming year, a longer greeting translates as "May You Be Written and Sealed for a Good Year" (ketiva ve-chatima tovah).
