still about lefty.

still about lefties!

In ancient Rome, the word meaning "left" was "sinister."

The English origins of the word "left" come from the Latin "laevus" meaning "the shield" or "lucky side."

The Latin word for "lefty" is "scaevola," the last name of Caius Mucius, who when he failed to kill an enemy, burned off his own right hand.

The Italian words for left and left-handed are "mancino and mancini" which translate to "defective and deceitful."

In North American sign language, a raised right hand means "powerful" and "brave." A left hand place over a right hand means "burial" and "death."



YOUCH! it's bad that lefties are considered unlucky (or for some lucky) and I - me - i have to be born on the THIRTEENTH.
How unlucky could someone ever be?
the bomohs or witches or anyone-related-with-this-people would scream and shout when they see me.
