Happy Passover can be said 'hag samea'h or pesa'h samea'h or 'hag samea'h lepesa'h

If you know how Germans pronounce the -ch in "Bach", or the way Scots pronounce the -ch in "loch", or if you know how Spaniards pronounce "j" in "la jota", then you know how to pronounce the 'h in 'hag. "a" and "g" as in English. 'hag means festival, holiday.

Now the word samea'h which means happy. Notice that the noun is always before the adjective (reverse order than in English).
Sa- as sa- in "saturday".
-me- as me- in "mellow".
-a'h as -ach in the German word "Bach"

Pesa'h means Passover.
pe- as pe- in "pending"

'hag samea'h lepesa'h means happy holiday to Passover.
In le- the "e" is pronounced as the "e" in "the" in "the road" for example.
