Sally2008Hi,

Could please tell me how we could say that soon is easter and holiday?

"Easter is near or easter is soon".

Thank you.

Either is o.k. , speaking informally. If they don't sound good to you [and they don't sound good to me], you might try, "We'll be celebrating Easter very soon".

Is "easter is coming" also possible?

BarbaraPA · Answer

Yes, in fact "Easter is coming" is what I was going to suggest as an alternative.

How about 'Easter is coming near.'?

Yankee · Answer

No, I wouldn't say that, but you could say "Easter is drawing near". That sounds fairly formal, though.

You could also say "Easter is getting close".

BarbaraPA · Answer

Or the converse: It's getting close to Easter.

Easter is near or easter is soon?
