From the Hebrew Language Academy, the traditional greeting of Temanim from
Alhugariya (southwest of Shar`ab) in southern Teman for the hagim:



תוסיפו שנים רבות ומועדים טובים ששים ושמחים בחגיכם ובמועדיכם ובימיכם ובשניכם
הטובים.

To which the response was:

בחייך ובימיך הטובים.

To all, מועדים לשמחה.
