Hi Dragan,

Do you know why you say "Be healthy" (or "Bless you"), when you sneeze?

Before Jacob people didn't have sickness before they died. They sneeze and then die. Jacob was the first to be sick before death according to Torah.

In Russian you say "Будь здоров", BTW.

>In any other language but English (of those that I know), it's something related to health. We (and Russians and Hungarians and probably a few other Slavic languages) say "on (your) health". Germans say "Gesundheit" (health). I've heard it comes from the plague times, when a sneeze was the first sign of recovery (as there's no English word which would literally mean "uphealthening").
