Hello everybody!
Got an 'article' problem in the phrase from the song:
"We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year".
The indefinite article is not normally used with Christmas, right?
What's the logics here? Could you please explain it to me?
What about the "a" with the "New Year"? Is it becayse the noun year is countable?
Will you please clarify it to me?
Thank you.
