Salud Hoppy -----Original Message----- From: lug-bounces+hoppyman=bigpond.net.au@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+hoppyman=bigpond.net.au@leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Nathan Wajsman Sent: Tuesday, 5 September 2006 06:16 To: Leica Users Group Subject: Re: [Leica] Some other uploads from Barcelona "Salud" is the standard for the situations where we English-speakers say "cheers". It means "health" and is a common form of greeting when having a drink--the same is true in Polish ("na zdrowie" means literally "to (our/your) health") and Russian and a bunch of other languages as well, I think.
