Paraskevidekatriaphobia..

By | May 13, 2005

No tis is not one of my latin ramblings….this means fear of friday the 13th, and today is one…

Amazing to note how many people believe in this superstition that 13 th falling on a friday is unlucky. And even more amazing is the fact that this superstition exists in the so-called developed nations like Eurpoe, Britain, US. What’s there to fear in a number , I say.

But my friday the 13th was amazingly well. I finished most of my work, got a little word of appreciation from my CE, and that’s about it. Otherwise this has been a very much normal day..

though I don’t know the origin of this phobia…can anyone educate me on this one?

    strangely no body knows the origin of this phobia!! btw i think the term “paraskevidekatriaphobia” seems more scary than its meaning 😀

    I’d probably end up with a fear of long words if you pull out more of these mile-long ones from your wordrobe! 😛
