Chinese culture is very interesting, considering the lucky and unlucky numbers. They have many beliefs into whether or not the numbers are considered lucky and unlucky. Their language tells a lot about all the different numbers. If a number sounds like a word in Chinese language it is often found that the words and numbers are associated with each other.

11. NUMBER 3
3: the number 3 in china is considered extremely lucky. number 3 stands for the holy trinity. in china it's good to have 3's in your phone number. people in china said: "GOOD THINGS COME IN THREES"

12. NUMBER 4
4: the number four in Chinese culture is very “UNLUKY’’ because the word four is similar to the word ‘death’. Most Chinese people don’t want the number 4 in their house number or telephone number.

13. NUMBER 7
The number 7 is a LUCKY number in most cultures, but not in china. This is because in Chinese the number “seven” sounds like the word “gone”. Also in china any number that ends with the number 7 is considered unlucky!
