"Urbi et Orbi" Christmas Greetings in different languages

Here are the list of all the Christmas greetings in 65 different languages that Pope Francis' predecessors use to say after their message "Urbi et Orbi".

This began sometime during the Pontificate of Pope St. John XXIII or Pope St. Paul VI. Pope St. John Paul II added some 50 more languages during his Pontificate and Pope Benedict XVI added 3 more. Pope Francis currently doesn't use the greetings since he is not as linguistic as his predecessors.

So here are all the greetings in order, beginning in Italian and ending in Latin. All of the languages are in their phonetics, this way it is easy to read and understand.
