When my friends and ere different tradition。

i jd. Tam atu
about tooth-loss in the WOr
tivated me to do ab of research and take a closer look at these
motivated
traditions.
The most common tradition im
tooth fairy。 When a tooth falls ouも, yom put it under Your pillow when
you go to bed, then while youre asleep the tooth fairy replaces it with
Enghish-speaking countries is the
a small amount of pocket money. This tradition is to comfort the
child who may be in shock from losing the tooth、 Reading about this
tradition brings a smile to myface as 1 think back to my own
childhood.
Next, IT found that most Asian countries share a different tooth-
loss tradition. 1 think this one is a bit more curious. It doesnt
involve handing out pocket money. Tf you lose a tooth from the lower
Jaw, you throw 辻 upwards. Tf is from the upper jaw, You throw
downwards, and sometimes even bury it in the ground. This is to
pray that the new teeth come in straight.
mm 抽spanic countries such as Spain and Mexico, the tooth-loss
tradition revolves around Perez Monse、 Similarly to the tooth fairy
radition, you place the tooth under a pllow, then Perez Mouse w山
replace it with a gift.、 tt Seems strange to me that English-speaking
countries and Hispanic Countries have similar tooth-loss t
raditionS
though they have different cultures.
