Chinese People Superstitious

When it comes to Chinese people superstitious, they often relate it to fortune mostly.

For instance, numbers.

Chinese people usually doesn't like the number such as "4", "Sei", because in Cantonese, it means die.

So, in various occasions, Chinese people will prevent using "4".

However, the number "8", "Pat" which means "Untung", "Fatt" in Cantonese, usually can be seen everywhere.

Chinese people like to use the number "8" in all occasions and apply them in everything, everywhere.

For example what I stumbled on when I'm on the way home just now.

BAU 8

In other language such as English, this doesn't mean anything much except vehicle plat number.
For Malays? BAU=SMELL.
SMELL 8?
What the heck does that means?
No meaning as well.

But for Chinese, "BAU", pronounced in Cantonese means GUARANTEE.
And from what I mentioned earlier, "8" means UNTUNG in Cantonese.
Therefore, this vehicle plat number means, "GUARANTEE UNTUNG!"
And the driver of this vehicle happened to be Chinese too.

Sometime this might sound stupid to others.
Even I'm Chinese, I felt this is stupid too.
But superstitious beliefs sometime can be true as well. ^^

You see? That vehicle plat number "BAU 8", "GUARANTEE UNTUNG".
Just look at that car, expensive car right?
So, believe it or not?
This might just work if you believe this superstitious.
Hahahaha.
