sarra « à vos souhaits » for someone you vouvoie (see vouvoyer). Equivalent to the English “bless you” after a sneeze. There's a sequence:
First sneeze — à tes souhaits ! (lit.) to your wishes!
Second sneeze — à tes amours ! to your loves! (to which the sneezer can respond que les tiennes durent toujours — les vôtres for a vous — may yours last forever!)
Third sneeze — à tes aïeux ! to your ancestors!
Fourth sneeze — crève ! die (choke)!
Or:
—à tes souhaits belle plante ! bless you, beautiful woman!
—merci fleur charmante ! thank you, delightful flower!
—y'a pas de quoi vieille branche ! don't mention it, old chap!
or
—ta gueule pot de fleur ! shut your gob, flowerpot! (?!)
