How do these greetings differ in terms of their use in the Greek language?

They are used to convey wishes for a happy new year.

"Evtikhes to neon etos!"

"Eftikhismenos o kenourghios khronos!"

    Ευτυχές το νέο έτος -it's a bit more formal/old style

    Ευτυχισμένος ο καινούργιος χρόνος-less formal style

    (you can also say "Ευτυχισμένο το νέο έτος" still a bit formal,and it's a combination of both previous greetings)

    Also we use -and it's the only thing that you'll hear both in formal and informal way,everyone is using it- Καλή Χρονιά (Kali Hronia)

    Kali-nice,good

    Hronia-Year

    it's the same thing though.

Now you have long previous and have been given me started out...
