It is a word of greeting or parting like the Italian ciao (which also comes from the slave meaning through Venetian s'ciavo). It was once common in some regions of the Austro-Hungarian Empire but it has fallen in disuse in part of its former range.The salutation is spelled servus in German, Bavarian, Slovak, Romanian, and Czech. In Rusyn and Ukrainian it is spelled сервус, in the Cyrillic alphabet. In Croatian, the variant spelling serbus (a transliteration from сербус or сервус) is also used. The greeting is spelled szervusz in Hungarian and serwus in Polish.The use of servus in German is regional, largely to South Germany, Austria, and South Tirol. In the last two it is also spelled servas.
