扑克牌的设计十分奇妙,它是根据历法而设计的。一副扑克牌为什么是52张(大、小王除外)呢?原来这是因为一年中有52个星期。扑克牌为什么有红桃、方块、草花、黑桃四种花色之分?它象征着一年春夏秋冬四个季节。因此,我们也不难想到,每种花色为什么都有13张牌,这表示一个季节里有13个星期。

54 If we license the total number of points, we can further prove the relationship between cards and calendars. If the "J" when the 11 o'clock, "Q" when the 12 o'clock, "K" when the 13 o'clock, large, all as a single, Xiao Wang, the licensing of 54 points are added together, it so happens that the total 365 the number of days.

如果我们把54张牌的点数全部加起来,就可以进一步证明扑克牌与历法的关系。如果把“J”当十一点,“Q”当十二点,“K”当十三点,大、小王各当作半点,把54张牌的点数加起来,恰巧是全年365的总天数。

Large and small card design has its reason, King (now Commander) represents the sun, the moon represents Wang. Why is there a red card (heart, box), and (flower, spades) of sub-do? One can now understand the reason: red that day, and that night.

大、小王牌的设计也有其道理,大王(正司令)代表着太阳,小王代表着月亮。一副牌为什么有红(红桃、方块)、黑(草花、黑桃)之分呢?现在也可懂得其中道理了:红表示白天,黑表示夜晚。
