In looking for ways to say "Happy Hanukkah," I became interested in how different languages tackled transliterating the Hebrew. Enjoy!

Er. It's not a bad idea, but there's really not much for quiz-takers to go on here, because they're mostly all so similar. Even in English there are many, many ways to transliterate, many of which appear on this quiz as other languages. (Also, "Hari raya Pentahbisan" is just a translation of "Feast of Dedication", not a transliteration.)
