Question

Answer

Hi Ivan. Thanks for your comment. One of the answers is indeed associated with good luck in many countries, but bad luck in others. Indeed, in Japan this answer is even meant to help single women find a husband! In other countries however, it tends to represent misfortune because of its association with witches. That's why I haven't marked it as a correct answer.
Thank you again for your comment, and I look forward to reading more of your posts.
