That would make for a nice long word:) I don't seem to have a word for 'anniversary' so far, and I suppose it should be put together like 'datreveno.' Date is saldei (year day), again is gen. Maybe gendei (again day) could mean anniversary. So: jeiuzojonmogendei Might do. But in common parlance, I suppose jeidei (Jesus Day) would work for Xmas. Rex F.
