I know this word means something like \\"cheers\\" but I\'ve heard different things about it. My grandparents and their family said it all the time at big dinners--\\"Nostrovia!\\" They are Slovak and Hungarian. Someone told me that the expression is Polish. I\'ve found elsewhere that it is used in Russia. Is there a country of origin for this expression? It seems to have gained currency in many countries as \\"ciao\\" has become common all throughout Europe. :grin:
