Break a leg  

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


"Break a leg" is a well-known saying in theatre which means "good luck". It is typically said to actors and musicians before they go out onto stage to perform.
The expression reflects a theatrical superstition in which wishing a person "good luck" is considered bad luck. The expression is sometimes used outside the theatre as superstitions and customs travel through other professions and then into common use.

是啊，一般搞艺术的人才多这么说。日常很少这么用的。

当年我刚学会的时候，张口就对朋友说，break your legs. 闻者听后“大怒”。。后来才了解，断一条那叫运气，断两条，那叫残疾。

那是因为你自我发挥的太多了啊。
