世界各地關于好運的迷信做法

10. THE NUMBER EIGHT IS GREAT // CHINA
中國：數字8最好

Speaking the number eight in Chinese sounds similar to the word for fortune and prosperity, so people in China love anything having to do with eight. Chinese people schedule marriages on dates involving the number, and everything from flight numbers to phone numbers are more lucky if they have eights in them. With this superstition in mind, the 2008 Summer Olympic Games in Beijing started at 8:08 pm on 8/8/2008.
8在漢語中的發音跟發財和發達的“發”很像，所以中國人喜歡一切和8有關的東西。結婚日期要有8，航班號要有8，手機號要有8，任何數字有了8就更加幸運。因為這個迷信，2008北京夏季奧運會的開幕式就定在2008年8月8號晚上8點零8分。
