뜻
Said when someone sneezes.
문화적 배경
Eye contact during a toast is mandatory. It signifies honesty and respect. If you don't do it, people might think you are hiding something. In villages, 'Na zdravje' is often followed by a long conversation. It's not just a phrase; it's an invitation to stay and talk. It is common for the whole room to say 'Na zdravje' in unison if someone sneezes loudly. It's a small moment of communal bonding. Younger people often use 'Živeli' for drinks, but they almost always stick to 'Na zdravje' for sneezing.
The Double Sneeze
If someone sneezes twice, you can say 'Na zdravje' twice, but usually, once is enough. If they sneeze a third time, some people jokingly say 'Pa še denar!' (And money too!).
Don't skip it!
In Slovenia, not saying 'Na zdravje' when someone sneezes in a small group can be seen as slightly cold or indifferent.

The Eye Contact Rule
When toasting, if you are in a large group, you don't need to clink everyone's glass, but you should at least make eye contact with the people closest to you.
