If you spit on the floor and someone else steps on it, your tongue will be twisted. I guess that's why everyone wipes theirs with their foot first. Ewwww...
That's interesting. Personally, I really do not think it's true. I mean, I think that such were made up to prevent us from eating things that have already fallen to the ground as that isn't safe for one's health.
We had something like that in my country too... Nobody that I know believed it, but we had a song about it.
Translating lyrics to English:
"O Sun my Little Sunny ... Take my Little Toothy ... O Give me a new toothy ... So I could eat sugary cake"
I think we share a lot of superstitions. And that's crazy! You must have believed it as a kid, too.
I never believed this one, I believe I was taught that teeth grow by themselves "one time" in your life.
hahhaha
What a believe
I disagree with this oo😂
wait, are there actually lions in Nigeria?! I thought that was southern and central Africa
haha, I think sometimes this happens to some people
Lolz
How do they beat them then?
You mean beat kids in reprimand? There are canes and belts. It's just socially unaccepted to use brooms.
Haha, yeah, I remember the belt. No one uses these strict methods anymore. Today's children are weak.
haha, use the rod of correction instead
Lmao 🤣
The last one cracked me up. Definitely trying this at home.😂
Thankfully, I won't be remotely near you when you try 😅
We have that one here too!! I don't know if it's true islamically, or if it's just a supersition, though

Many of these superstitions sound very familiar but why on earth would my tongue twist because another human being stepped on my sputum.😂
I sha give it to Africans. Their superstitions are top notch
I give it to us abeg, we too dey form things. Lol
I can still remember I have thrown my many teeth on the roof 🤣🤣. Who knew that was a superstition?

At that time, we were trying to be safe. You couldn't blame us. 😂
