    The answer for the 4th one is debatable so I would recommend others to wait for confirmation or something.
    anyway

    People in the room were saying the same thing for No. 4! It better be right or I'm after getting three pointless badges!

    What's your source for this, as many sites suggest that it means "Best wishes and Congratulations. Have a prosperous and good year." If you even search 'happy new year in chinese' in google many websites show that phrase
    anyway

    That basically means the same thing, I said roughly translated. I believe theres a chinese song about it or something. I forgot where I found it, i'll have another look.

    Edit; Couldn't find my old source, but again:

    Gung Hei is equivalent to Congratulations or Wishing you happiness, and Fat Choi, means Sudden and huge increase on your property. So Gung Hei Fat Choy 恭喜发财 at best translation or the nearest interpretation into English would be: Wishing you Great Happiness and Prosperity!
    On the same page, however, people are saying it means Happy new year. :S

    It does almost seem a trick question/multiple answer question as another source I found says

    Which suggests it means have a good (new year) but may it also be prosperous AND also Best wishes. Unfortunately, the answers are 3 seperate ones. You guys can try either, but I think it's the last one.

    Image with each question here for those that asked:

    ?? You do realise that the first option seems more relevant if we look at the definition i just posted, right?
