> How do you say "happy birthday" bau lojban?

I would say:
a'o do cinmo loka gleki le do jbena nunsalci

or possibly more emotively
a'o uidai le do jbena nunsalci

I think I have also used lifri in such expressions in the past, and I 
instinctively want to use ba'o when expressing such a thing in advance 
of the event.
