What is it

22、? Many people have a special number and they hope that it will bring them good luck. In China, people think that, some numbers are lucky or unlucky because those numbers sound similar to some Chinese words that mean something good or bad.For example, the word for number 8 sounds like making lots of

23、money in Chinese. So, people think it a very lucky number. Some people will even spend much more money to have 8s in their phone numbers. Do you remember the Summer Olympic Games in Beijing?

24、emperors of China. There were nine dragons on emperors robes and its told in many Chinese ancient stories that the dragon has nine children. The number of 9 also means long lasting. In China, a man would send 99 or 999 roses to his lover with the wishes that the love between them will be long lastin

26、 or other celebrations.So whats an unlucky number in China? It might be 4. Many Chinese people see 4 as an unlucky number because it sounds similar to the Chinese word death.
