| на здоровье | nostrovia (Nostrovia is a miss-pronunciation of Russian word Na Zdorovie (На здоровье) which is wrongfully considered in the US to be a common toast meaning 'To good health' or simply 'Cheers'. In fact, however, the words "на здоровье" is a traditional response of a Russian host when her guests thank her for the meals. Actual Russian toast is "За Ваше здоровье!" "Za Vashe Zdorovie" meaning 'To your health'.. wlema) |
