2) Hip Hip Hooray/ Hurray - It is a cheering called out three times in a row to express praise for someone or to appreciate someone.
3) Three Cheers 'for...' - Just as hip hip hooray, this phrase is generally followed by for and the name of the person or thing being celebrated.
4) Kudos - Compliments or congratulations. This word is derived from the Greek and means praise. It is used to appreciate and congratulate someone's deeds.
5) Hat's off to you - To show respect and congratulate. This expression alludes to taking off one's hat as a sign of respect.
6) Mazel Tov - Used among the Jewish for congratulating or to offer best wished to someone. The literal meaning of this phrase is good luck.
