Taboos (Weham)

[Jat]

Let's see if we can list one hundered here:

1. Billi rah katt gai kamm pura nahiN hona.

[sabah]

In pe yaqeen nahin kerte sirf sun ke hanste hain OK

2. Safer pe jate peche se pokaar lo, haadsah ho ga

[Shabnam]

3)Daini aankh parakti hai to mehmaan aate hain aur bai aankh agar parke to kuch bura hone vaala hai

4)Shaam ke waqt baalon mein kangi nahi marni chaahiye (don't know what the supposed consequences are meant to be)

5. Breaking of mirror is bad luck.

Now this one is really stupid.

[ChannMahi]

6. Don't buy a house narrow in the front and wide in the rear(ShermunhaN). It is a badluck.

7. Nun na girao, agle janam wich akhan naal chugna paega. (Do not spill salt, in the next life you would have to pick it with your eyes)

May be it was invented when the british made it illegal to make salt in Hindustan (united before 1947). And the slat was imported from England and was too expensive.
