Are you a supersticius guy?
If you don't want to cross with a black cat while you are walking on the street, or you have to touch wood everytime, or maybe you don't like to book the thirteen seat in a flight, I am sure you are a supersticious guy. So here are some "Argentinian Superticions":
1) Don't walk under an open starway
2) Touch wood if you don't want that someone bad happens to you
3) Don't break a mirror If you don't want to get sevens years of bad luck.
4) You shouldn't wear something yellow if you are an actor on his first presentation.
5) On Tuesday or Friday the 13th don't get marry, don't take a ship and don't go out from your home.
6) If you are going to cheers with water do it twice.
7) If someone request you for the salt, you shouldn't give it on his hand, you have to put it down on the table near the person who request you.
8) Don't kill a cricket or you can get bad luck immediately.
I know many of them are common in others country, but I think these are eight of the most common supersticions from here.
Good luck!

Are you a superstitious guy?
If you don't want to cross with a black cat to cross your path while you are walking on the street, or you have to touch knock on wood everytime all the time, or maybe you don't like to book the thirteenth seat in a flight, I am sure you are a superstitious guy. So here are some "Argentinian Superstitions":1) Don't walk under an open stairway
2) Touch Knock on wood if you don't want that someone something bad to happens to you. In the US, we knock on wood with our knuckles to ward off bad luck or invite good luck. I am not sure if that is what you do in Argentina. If you just touch the wood, then it is fine to leave it as you wrote it.
3) Don't break a mirror if you don't want to get sevens years of bad luck.
4) You shouldn't wear something yellow if you are an actor on during his your first presentation performance.
5) On Tuesday or Friday the 13th don't get marry married, don't take a ship and don't go out from leave your home.
6) If you are going to cheers toast with water do it clink glasses twice. The verb is not "to cheers" but "to toast", but you would be clinking glasses twice.
7) If someone request asks you for the salt, you shouldn't give it on his hand hand it to him; you have to put it down on the table near the person who request asked you.
8) Don't kill a cricket or you can get bad luck immediately.
I know many of them are common in others country other countries, but I think these are eight of the most common superstitions from here.
Good luck!
