Summary/Abstract: "Szczęść Boże!" [God Bless!] - on greetings and salutations at work (a farewell to the traditional language etiquette of the Polish countryside). The article examines the decline of traditional peasant linguistic etiquette, using rural forms of greeting and salutation among working individuals as a case study. It analyzes the impact of socio-economic, ideological, religious, and globalization-related factors. Rural etiquette is interpreted within the axiological framework of the Polish countryside, particularly in relation to the sacred sphere encompassing the land and the labor of the farmer. Special emphasis is placed on the pivotal role of cultural interference--specifically, globalization and the dissemination of the urban model of politeness.
