    Neither, I don't celebrate this Lunar New Year so never had to use it in conversation before it would had to have been the other party in the conversation who brought it up, so I assume I would have just repeated whatever they said at the time and forgot about it afterwards


    This is the first I remember noticing the term Lunar New Year being used, where I definitely heard the expression Chinese New Year before, but again I never brought up either in conversation just heard others say it
