Today`s keyword.
Yoi Otoshi wo!! (良いお年を!!)
means ⇒ Have a good new year!!
[A happy new year] is usually translated to [Akemashite omedetou].
However, [Akemashite omedetou] can be said only in a new year, but in the end of the year.
This means that you cannot say this to people now.
So what you can say now to people is:
[Yoi Otoshi wo!!]
You can say this only now till 31st of December, when you meet people whom you will perhaps see last within this year.
So let`s say this to your Japanese friend now!! ^^
