Please do not wish anyone a "happy" Yom Kippur. It is a very solemn holiday. It is the day of atonement in which you contemplate your "sins" of the last year and ask for forgiveness. it is also a day of remembering relatives who have died.

Rosh Hashana is the new year so a "happy" would be appropriate. Or L'shana tova!
