All About China > Chinese Culture And Festivals
Very superstitious!
Paul Todd:
At last, I found the answer. I read a while back "Never buy a Chinese man a green hat" If a Chinese man wears a green hat, it means his marriage is in trouble/his wife has cheated on him. Thats where all this nonsense started.
Irishman:
Green means bad luck in general in China, I didn't dare wear my Ireland jersey once over there!!
maxx:
you guys got some crazy ideas about Chinese superstitions.Did you guya read all this stuff un a book or did you get it off the interent
Paul Todd:
Nice one Nick, but your just not taking this seriously enough! :lol:
Maxx, 'most' of the first list I posted was from the China History forum. It's a site used by academic's and to tell you the truth, a lot of it is way over my head. Like a lot of these 'high brow" sites it has some great left field topic's. Ancient Chinese children's hair cuts, for example. I kid you not! To become a full member you even have to take an exam! and I quote
"About CHF Imperial Exam System
CHF is generally catered for those who are interested in learning chinese history and culture. We pride ourselves in becoming a leading educational and academic site for the learning of chinese history and culture. Functioning just like a university/school, CHF has also established "Imperial Exams" designed to help qualify members to become "official scholar members" (qualified citizens) of CHF.
CHF is probably the 1st and only online community to implement an exam system for its member. Our goal is to make all members become literate or educated in chinese history and culture after joining CHF. Technically speaking, CHF encourages all members to take the Entry Level Exam (Xiucai Exam)"
Ronan, maybe we should do the same! :lol: .You more experienced members could set the questions! Seriously though this site is full of useful stuff and well worth a few hours, here's the link
