Salud
Used as a toast when clinking glasses, equivalent to 'cheers' in English. It's also said when someone sneezes, as the Spanish equivalent of 'bless you.' Two completely different uses of the same word that both mean 'health,' covering both the ritual of drinking together and the courtesy of public sneezing.
