servus
Moin! 😸
Moin, min Jung. Wat moi, dat hier ok en paar Plattsnacker ünnerwegens sünd.
Fun fact: Servus was the most common greetings in Austria-Hungary, and it is still used in most of the successor states. In some countries it's considered archaic, but in Hungary it's still one of the most common informal greetings, sometimes pronounced with a "B" instead of "V" e.g. "serbus".
It's originally from latin, from the phrase servus humillimus, domine spectabilis meaning your most humble servant, my noble lord
In a similar manner in Italian we use "ciao" which means "schiavo" (slave)
Alto Adige and Venezia Giulia were part of Austria-Hungary, Veneto and Lombardy were only part of the predecessor Austrian Empire, so Italy is also one of the successor states.
