Four is an unlucky number in Japan because it sounds like shi (-- -C death). This is why there are two readings for the number four, shi and yon. Whenever possible, people try to avoid using the deathy one. The same is true of the ku (-- -C nine), which sounds like ku (-- -C suffering, agony or torture).
