Salud

Cheers / Bless you

معنی

Used when toasting or when someone sneezes.

🌍

زمینه فرهنگی

In Spain, it is very common to say 'Jesús' instead of 'Salud' when someone sneezes, especially among older generations. Mexicans often use 'Salud' for the first sneeze, 'Dinero' for the second, and 'Amor' for the third. If there is a fourth, they might say 'y mucha fuerza' (and a lot of strength). When toasting, it is considered bad luck in many Spanish-speaking countries to toast with water or to not look the other person in the eye.

💡
