8. SAY THE WORD ‘RABBIT’ WHEN YOU WAKE UP // UNITED KINGDOM
英國：醒來時說“兔子”

A good luck superstition that originated in the United Kingdom involves saying “rabbit” right after you wake up on the first day of the month. Whether you say “rabbit,” “white rabbits,” or “rabbit, rabbit,” the ritual will supposedly give you good luck for the rest of the month. The superstition has been around since at least the early 1900s, and even President Franklin Roosevelt reportedly said “rabbit, rabbit” to usher in each new month. If you forget to say it in the morning, for the same results simply say “black rabbit” or “tibbar, tibbar” (rabbit spelled backwards) right before you go to sleep instead.
英國人有個迷信，在每個月的第一天早上醒來時要馬上說“兔子”。不管你說“兔子”，“白兔子”還是“兔子兔子”，這都會讓你在這個月得到好運。據說這個迷信做法在上世紀初開始存在，甚至連羅斯?？偨y在每個月開頭都對引座員說“兔子兔子”。如果你忘記在早上說“兔子”，你在睡前說“黑兔子”或者“tibbar，tibbar”（兔子英文rabbit反寫）也會有同樣的效果。
