In the Japanese language the number four is "shi"; which has a dual meaning. One being the number 4, the other being the word for death. 4 is generally considered unlucky and isn't used much; very similar to the number 13 here is the US. Some hotels don't have a 13th floor, in general labelling something with the number 13 is generally avoided due to negative stigma attached to it; just as the number 4 is generally avoided with the Japanese. |
