China's number superstitions
Updated: 2014-05-15 07:58 (bbs.chinadaily.com.cn)2 - Two (Èr)
There is a Chinese saying that "Good things come in pairs" ("双喜临门"), so the number two is often associated with luck or fortune. For example, at a traditional Chinese wedding, we would often see the character 囍 (Xǐ) which is formed from the combination of two characters of 喜 (Xǐ) "Happiness".
