happy birthday
I also agree that it should be in the accusative . Also, someone said that we should concider Italian on the other Romance languages ​​, because it is the closest thing , but why not in Sardinia ? Since the Forum of America, I was informed that all the Romance languages ​​, this was the most isolated and , therefore, at least popularized . Also, I read in a book of Latin text of the rich man who is ready for a gladiatorial show in the amphitheater and invited the inhabitants of Pompeii and Nocera to celebrate his birthday , he said "Happy Birthday" in America is perhaps not so strange - the lease is someone who pays for the entertainment of everyone ! Incidentally , I have this part of Cambridge Latin Unit 1 (121). I know this may not be very reliable, but the habit of taking real charcacters real situations .

imperative Alternative
I would completely avoid the subjunctive . Personally, I think it is imperative vernacular or "real" American , unless Virgil wish a happy birthday , I think " Habe Bonam natalem diem" is more likely.

Emprise to say ....
Ad Multos Annos is how Catholics say. This means ( for { lit. Towards } { ed. } Many years ) or similar "Congratulations ." Catalan ( by silent Anys ! ) Is very similar to it in Romanian ( La multi ani ! ) , Which is one of the closest Latin language .

Happy Birthday America
Fortuna dies natalis ! Thus the BBC h2g2 page lists Happy Birthday America. I have always respected the BBC Latin language department . ------------------- Http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A1053640 Catholic Vatican newspaper had a front page article on Pope Benedict birthday , entitled " Ad multos annos " ( many years) .

Felicem Diem Natalis
I would go with " felicem diem natalis be" literally " happy birth day " . The word order is not important . I had three years of Latin and that is how I learned to translate.

What America ?
We must remember that in classical Latin America was different from that commonly spoken "vulgar" or villages. Unfortunately, we have a lot of history to show us today what was said in the "real life" as opposed to what the experts listed in the classical Latin form . If I think about how "real" to say happy birthday in Italian would be a point of departure . " Buon Compleanno " "progression" Happy or "complete" a year, mostly But again ... is important to note the difference btwn common and classic.

Habeas laetum Diem Natalem
For my birthday , I think my brother me Natalem habeas laetum Diem wanted. I do not know if this is correct because I never took Latin, French only. So I wanted to make sure I have the right one for your birthday today, but nobody I translated what he did , and I remembered correctly.

The accusative of exclamation is the best
After teaching Latin for several years, I can attest to many similar expressions that use the accusative . (For example, Io , Saturnalia ! ) The person who suggested " felicem natalem diem" is probably the most correct. I also saw as " felicem diem natalis " with translation " natalis " " Birth " .
