😀 Everyone failed! Russians don’t say anything similar while raising glasses. They choose something more fitting for the exact moment, like for example: to the friendship, to the newlyweds, and whatnot. The only thing that can be considered similar, and is said when like there’s nothing to lift glasses to, is “Davaytee!” or “Noo davaytee!” It’s like ‘let’s drink’ or something and works as a substitute for some toast.

if in your translation the russians are speaking i don’t think they’ll say ‘na zdorovye’ (when someone sneezes or someone has eaten well as a guest to their thank you) when drinking, it’s rather
‘za vashe zdorovye’ this literally meaning ‘to your health’
a native russian
Na zdorovie = a polite reply for given food or a drink.
Let us say, i give you a dinner, and you thank me for it,
Then i answer “Na zdorovie” (nah zdah-rOv-ye)
Zdorovie=health.
In drinking they would rather say “za vashe zdorovie”
or simply “za zdorovie”=drinking to your health.
By the way, i do not drink alcohol.
It is bad for anyone’s “zdorovie”
Na zdorovje
The spelling is somewhat subjective, anyway, since it’s being translated into our alphabet from the Cyrillic alphabet, so you’ll see it represented several different ways.
