Gesundheit!

"Gesundheit", the German word for health, is a familiar response to somebody sneezing. Its probably the safest German word you can utter. I mean, you can say "Gesundheit" anytime you want in public, especially if there is an actual person sneezing. Try saying "Sieg Heil" the next time you hear somebody sneeze........

Not to be outdone by the Germans, the Dutch "Gezondheid" can be a response to a person who has sneezed three times....sort of the equivalent of 'Gesundheit' said 3 times in English (Yes! We stole it from the Germans, bwahahahahaha!) if the person has sneezed 3 times, enough with the sneezing already! 

Wikipedia tells me ......."(Three times) the weather will be nice tomorrow."

This German-Dutch rivalry has been going on for centuries. Suffice it to say that sneezing has played a major part. Witness below the up-and-running high-tech GezondheidsCentrum. This translates literally as "Sneezing Central", a state of the art research and development center that rivals anything the German's are doing. bwahahahahahahaha......
