زمینه فرهنگی

The eye contact rule is taken very seriously. It's about trust and being 'present' with your drinking partner. At Oktoberfest, the song 'Ein Prosit der Gemütlichkeit' is played every 20 minutes to encourage people to drink. Similar to Germany, but 'G'sundheit' is also occasionally heard as a toast in rural areas.

Technically yes, but many Germans find it odd or even bad luck. It's better to just raise your glass without saying it.

Yes, though 'Pröschtli' is a very common Swiss-German variation.

'Prosit' is the older, more formal Latin form. You mostly hear it in songs like at Oktoberfest.

In a small group, yes. In a large group, a general 'Prost' to the table with a raised glass is enough.

Not at all! It is the standard friendly way to toast. Only avoid it in extremely formal settings.

It is a sarcastic idiom meaning 'Well, that's a fine mess' or 'Great, just what we needed'.
