Sinister means "on the left" in latin - similarly, unlucky and the present-day definition of the word 'sinister'

Me? Word snob? Nevah.  ;D

Vengeance


un4

Commoner - Feudal

Close enough... it literally means "Left" in the Latin.  Roman armies always set out on their right feet, and men carrying their new brides over the threshold of their homes would always cross with the right foot.  Love that superstition!

fiere redfern

Feudal - liege lord

Hehe, awesome. I like learning about the superstitions of various cultures/social groups. Take theatre for example!
- no whistling (fly-men used to be sailors who used whistles to communicate... you stand the chance of having a set-piece or a drape flown in on your head!)
- always always ALWAYS have a ghostlight when there is no one in the theatre
- one of the dance instructors always makes her dancers touch all four edges of the Marley in an 'X' formation during warm-ups - says it brings good luck
- again in dance: "bonne merde" before every show

...hell I could start a new thread just on superstitions!
