"¿Qué costumbre extraña hay en España para celebrar el Año Nuevo?" "¿Qué gritan todos al sonar la última campanada?"

These are my two questions. They are related to an article I translated, but I'm not sure of their translations. The article was about how Spanish people celebrate Christmas and New Years. These to questions have to do with the New Years part.

I know that they swallow a grape for each strike of the clock at midnight, but I don't know what they shout out with the last one. - bosquederoble, Dec 17, 2014

I guess it depends on the family... We kiss everyone and say "¡Feliz año! ¡Feliz año nuevo! ¡Feliz año a todos!", and similar things. Something like this (but with kisses at the end).

I think many choke on the grapes , actually. - annierats, Dec 17, 2014
De hecho, yo no grito nada cuando acaban las campanadas, porque siempre tengo todavía 10 uvas en la boca, y no quiero ahogarme, jajaja. :) - Cordobesa, Dec 17, 2014
