뜻
Feeling well physically.
문화적 배경
The phrase is often linked to the 'Mediterranean Diet'. Italians believe being in good health is a result of eating 'genuino' (authentic/natural) food. There is a superstitious element; some Italians might touch iron (toccare ferro) after saying they are in good health to avoid bad luck. In the South, health is often discussed in relation to family. Being in good health is a blessing for the whole 'famiglia'. The concept of 'salute' is so important it is the standard toast when drinking: 'Salute!'
The 'In' Rule
Always remember the preposition 'in'. You are 'inside' a state of health in Italian logic.
No 'Avere'!
Never say 'Ho buona salute'. It's the most common mistake for English speakers.

Intensify it
Use 'ottima' instead of 'buona' to sound more native and enthusiastic about your health.
The Toast
When you clink glasses, you are literally wishing 'Health!' to your friends.
