I will congratulate with Friday!



The construction "поздравлять с" is very common in Russian for birthdays, holidays, and many other occasions.  However, in English the word "congratulate" is used mostly to  express praise when someone has made an especially important achievement, or something very special has happened:  "You just got married?  Congratulations!"  "You were promoted to vice-president of your company?  Let me congratulate you."

 

"Congratulate" is NOT used for birthdays, holidays, or ordinary occurrences.  So you will hear instead:  "Happy birthday!"  "Happy New Year!"  "Merry Christmas!"

 

And in this case you could say, "I wish you a wonderful Friday!"  or "Have a wonderful Friday."
