well klowj, it is really good to think sneeze sound idea.
That's good to know! At least for me
In spanish we sneeze "¡Achús!" and we answer either Jesus, or Salud that means health.I have heard we say Jesus because a long time ago people thought evil spirits left the body when we sneezed, so they said Jesus so the spirits wouldn't harm them. I don't know if it's true. Kisses to all!
