Summary/Abstract: Through the present work we intend to make an approximation to the phenomenonof the toast, both from a sociocultural perspective (because if we take the classical tradition as a reference it is easily observable that it was articulatedaround the convivalia, a phenomenon that has reached our days, ramified inmultiple articulations and formulations, but which maintains the original essencerelated to the fact of paying homage to a specific person in meetings or gatherings of various kinds, whether more formal or more familiar), as well as from a linguistic perspective that will cover various fields of analysis clearly delimited:pragmatics, since this act initially constitutes an element that has been included inthe manifestations of courtesy or, eventually, impoliteness, as well as comparativelinguistics between the Spanish and Polish languages. However, we would like toshow that, ultimately, this article constitutes a modest tribute to Professor Anna Sawicka, an eminent figure of Spanish and Catalan letters at the JagiellonianUniversity of Kraków, and all the research carried out in it is not but our way ofexpressing our most sincere gratitude.
