[lojban] happy birthday

[jongausib <so.cool.ogi@gmail.com>]

How do you say "happy birthday" bau lojban?

in swedish we have different possibilities: "grattis" (a special word/
attitudinal just for birthdays and the like, similar to "good for
you"), "ha den äran" (="you deserve the honour", or something like
that, but a phrase only used for birthdays) or in the swedish birthday
song "ja må han leva" (="yes, may he (continue to) live").

So how do you express this best in lojban?

uidai fe do jbedetnunsla (you must be happy)

u'isaidai.a'odai fe do jbedetnunsla (you must be very amused and agog)

i'adai ti jbedetnunsla do (you know you must accept that you're
getting older)

io le do jbedetnunsla (I respect you're birthday)

uedai ti do jbedetnunsla (Surprise, this is you're birhtday party)

what do you think?
