what to say when someone sneezes instead of bless you?
gesundheit
if somebody is sneezing, one may respond "[god] bless you". because many people don't want to use a blessing phrase with religious context, instead the german term "gesundheit" is widely used. in german, "gesundheit" means health, but is also used as response when someone sneezes. the same word is used in yiddish, and thus came to be known also in the us. 









































the concise oxford english dictionary lists the german word "verboten", defined as "forbidden by an authority". weltschmerz, schadenfreude, brat, kaput, weltanschauung. another important psychological concept is "angst".

although anagnostakis' 1971 collection represented the end of the published works he was best known for, his existentialism-influenced verse left its mark on a younger generation of greek poets. this influence is in part owing to his poetry having been set to music by mikis theodorakis, as part of his "ballades" cycle, written during the seven-year regime of the colonels. the "ballades" have been performed by vocalist margarita zorbala (recorded on her 1975 debut album), amongst others. anagnostakis moved his practice and family to athens in 1978. lakis papastathis produced a 52-minute film, "manolis anagnostakis", on anagnostakis' life, for the greek television series "paraskenio" in 1983. two volumes of anagnostakis', another collection and "o piitis manussos fassis", ("the poet manussos fassis") were issued in the following four years. anagnostakis died june 23, 2005 in athens.
