Class#7 Superstition

1.Do you think it is important to talk about superstitions in cross culture communication class? Why?

Yes, I think so. Because I guess it is one of culures in the country.
For example, some people believe that cutting nails at night is bad in japan. If you do, you cannot be with your parents when they die.



2.Is communication affected by superstitions?

Not so much, but it is good to know each country's superstitions.



3.Do you believe in superstitions? If yes, what superstitions do you believe?Why do you do, use, or believe in them?

I don't believe them, but I guess superstitions are precepts by ancestors.
For example, "cutting nails~" teaches us that if you cut nails at dark room, you may be injured your finger.
