    In coptic, Merry Christmas is said as "Pikhristos avmasf" and the person that the words were directed at replies with "Khen Omethmi Avmasf". I would use the coptic font but the "x" isn't coming out as a "kei" and I didn't want to write out the wrong thing...lol

    Pikhristos Avmasf

    That means 'Christ has been borne', I thought.

    And Khen Omethmi, means 'In Truth', so, 'In truth has borne...
