World peace: What kinds of superstitions do you have?


Do you have any kinds of superstitions or jinx?

I’ll tell you about my family’s superstitions. .. Actually,
I have no superstitions or jinx.

But my family has various jinx and superstition.
I don’t know where it was from ~.

For example, my mother has tooth fairy superstitions.

She thinks that throwing teeth onto the roof brings good
luck.
 
And she hates number 13.
she thinks number 13 is unlucky.
Because she believes that Jesus died thirteenth day.

 
 
 
 
 
 
My brother has a superstition too.
He believes that having seaweed soup brings bad luck,

especially on the test day. So he never eats seaweed soup

if it is a test day.

 
In Korean,  people think that seeing a yellow taxi is very
lucky. And seeing or hearing magpie in the morning brings
good news.


But seeing crow or hearing crow’s cry brings bad luck.

And stepping on threshold brings bad luck, too.

Here are some other superstitions

Many people believe that you’ll have good luck..

 If you find a four-leaf clover..

If you find a horseshoe…

If you give a new pair of shoes to a poor person.                                                                                                                                                                                                


 Many people believe that you’ll have bad luck..

If a black cat walks in front of you.

If you walk under a ladder.

If you open an umbrella in your home.

If you put your shoes on a table.
