Two friends once told me a funny story about ordering in a Chinese restaurant. They wanted to ask the waitress for two bowls of rice, so one of them held out two fingers - the thumb and the forefinger of his right hand.

Guess what? The waitress gave them a surprising look and came back with eight bowls of rice. She must be thinking: "Two of them can eat eight bowls of rice with all the dishes? Crazy."

My friends were embarrassed. Luckily a Chinese person who can speak some English from the next table explained to the waitress and saved them...

In China, we hold out the thumb and the forefinger of the same hand to express the number eight.

Now let's have a look at the hand gestures for Chinese numbers 1-10.
