Cheers,prosit,nas dahrovye,etc.
I was wondering why the question was asked! I had no idea it doesn't show up in the app.
I find it interesting that nas dahrovye (a toast) is pronounced the same in Slovak,Russian,& Polish.
It's not really surprising: they're three very closely related languages. Czech, Polish and Slovak are mutually comprehensible, at least the simple things. I can understand basic bits of Russian, even though I've never studied the language.

throw ukrainian and belarusian in that group too.
all those languages developed long before our modern borders existed. the language changed a little from village to village, so the slavic tongue was a spectrum.
i get a kick out of folks arguing about whether something slavic (like pierogies) is polish vs. ukrainian vs. russian... it's all of them because it existed before those countries did.
Kanpai!
