Maybe give some free advice about: School?
Reversing something you just said. Like say you say something bad like "I've never had a broken bone" or "I've never gotten a black eye before." You'd knock on wood so it wouldn't happen.

yeah it's for good luck, for example if someone said "i've never broken a bone" then they might knock on wood for good luck that they won't ever break a bone. lol hope i helped.

its an old legend that if you "knock on wood" you will have good luck and it will prevent bad luck from coming your way.

hmm, lets see if i can explain it.
When people say something like "I've never..."
thenthey will say knock on wood, its like something peole do so they dont jinks themselfs and then it happens if that makes sence to you.
hope it helped
