When I was a guest at a cocktail party at the Polish Consulate General in New York
many years ago, I sneezed and the host said, "STO LAT!"

Guess the phrase has various applications.

Yes, it is used for birthdays and sneezing.
Amasing! I wasn`t aware of it until I read your post.

Neither was I until I heard the wish in context and understood
what the gentleman was saying.

We spoke exclusively in Polish throughout the proceedings.

No LOL here, we do say na zdrowie when someone sneezes.

Nice to know. Similar then to saying "Gesundheit!", I guess.
