a great way to get involved
How do you say cheers in any language?
Lets say that we are in Belarus and drinking with a dodgy, middle-aged, sweating, singlet-wearing mobile phone salesman. He has just raised his glass to toast our soon-to-be lucratively profitable multinational yet partially legal trade of used Soviet-era mobile phones to a Lithuanian copper conglomerate.
What should you say, but, naturally, Будзьма!, budzma, may we live!
How do say cheers, bottoms up, gan bei, in languages other than English?
No wikipedia, google or baidu； lets together make a list and see how many we can compile. I start with Belarus, and raise you...
Thai:
ชัยโย chai-yo!, Hurrah!, or,
ชนแก้ว chon-kaew, Let us toast, or,
หมดแก้ว mod-kaew, Bottoms up.
If we reach 50 in 10 days I will sell to each person who contributes to this list one such Soviet-era walky-talky for a very reasonably discounted price which you can use for your own leisure or to expand your global business.
