世界各地關(guān)于好運的迷信做法

3. EAT A DOZEN GRAPES AND WEAR RED UNDERWEAR TO RING IN THE NEW YEAR // SPAIN
西班牙：吃12顆葡萄，穿紅內(nèi)褲迎接新年

When midnight strikes to usher in a New Year, Spaniards eat 12 green grapes for 12 months of good luck. They eat one grape at each bell toll, chewing and swallowing quickly, and they wear red underwear while doing so. The superstition involving grapes dates back to a century ago when there was a grape surplus, and the red underwear originated in the Middle Ages, when Spaniards couldn’t outwardly wear red clothing because it was considered to be a devilish color.
當(dāng)新年鐘聲敲響，西班牙人會吃12顆綠葡萄代表12個月的好運。每敲響一下吃一顆，快速咀嚼吞下，同時還要穿著紅內(nèi)褲。這個關(guān)于葡萄的迷信要追溯到一個世紀前的葡萄貿(mào)易順差，紅內(nèi)褲則來源于中世紀，那時不能把紅色衣服穿在外面因為紅色代表邪惡。
