意味
Said when clinking glasses or after sneezing.
文化的背景
The 'seven years of bad sex' superstition for not making eye contact is widely cited, even if jokingly, by people of all ages. In wine-growing regions of Moravia, toasting is even more frequent and often involves singing traditional folk songs. It is common to tap the glass on the table after clinking but before drinking. This is called 'uzemnit' (to ground) the drink. Slovaks use the exact same phrase 'Na zdravie!', reflecting the shared history of the two nations.
The Eye Contact Rule
If you are in a large group, don't rush. It's better to take your time and make eye contact with everyone individually than to clink blindly.
No Water Toasts
Some older Czechs believe toasting with water or an empty glass is bad luck. Stick to beer, wine, or juice if possible.
