Do you know any belief or explanation regarding this? Like in our country, when you bite your tongue, usually we ask for a number and then count what letter corresponds to that number, and whichever letter it is, you think of a person you know whose name starts with that letter, the first person to enter your mind means he/she is thinking or talking about you at that very moment. Of course there is no truth to that, just some sort of belief which I don't really know came from where... You know anything or any saying regarding this?

Hehe i never believed it but out of being accustomed to it, i just asked whenever i bit my tongue. One time i asked my canadian husband for a number, he was just clueless as to what i was doing. I think it was just a child's play the way it started. Dont think its a belief of some sort.

Its also traditional, it happens in every community and culture in different ways. Every thing like this is not wrong. many are correct how because these things exists due to some reason. not every but many. In our world many Different and strange Things happens,

I don't know if this is believable. It's like having some sort of psychic powers that in exchange of the pain you inflict to yourself haha...
