🇬🇧 Note: 'eight' contains a silent 'gh' — it sounds like /eɪt/. Ordinal: eighth (not 'eightth'). Use 'an' before 'eight': 'an eight-hour day'. Common collocations: figure of eight, eight o'clock, piece of eight.
Eight is considered a very lucky number in Chinese culture, which influences many English-speaking communities. The number eight (8) looks like the infinity symbol (∞) when turned sideways, so it is often associated with good fortune and continuity.
