Starting tonight is Rosh HaShana, the Jewish new year!
Here's how to bless your fellow Jews:
- "Shana tova" is a classic. The literal meaning is "a good year".
- You can also go "shana tova u-mutzlachat" (the "ch" pronounced like Bach) for an upgrade. 
- Another one that's sure to impress because goyim usually don't know about it is "chatima tova" (again, "ch" like Bach).
