Some scholars in France, Belgium, Italy, Egypt, India, North Korea and other countries believe that the place of invention should belong to their own country, but there is no conclusive historical data to verify it, so far there is no conclusion.

Playing cards used to be French tarot cards, with 52 cards, so the colors and heads are the same. American businessmen added two ghost cards of German Youke cards. When it was introduced from China, people came to play poker most often, so it was called playing cards.

Are these four colors spades? (Spades, also known as sunflower fans), hearts? (heart, also known as red heart), plum blossom? (Dong Jia, also known as Caohua), diamonds? (diamond, also known as step brick or square, called "block" in Sichuan and Chongqing), spades and clubs are black, and the other two are hearts and squares. Thirteen cards of each suit are numbered from one to thirteen. Cards from one to ten are represented by the number of patterns, and cards from eleven, twelve and thirteen are represented by human heads.

Excluding ghost cards, 52 cards symbolize 52 weeks of the year. Spades? , hearts? , plum blossom? , diamonds? Represents spring, summer, autumn and winter. Every quarter 13 card, representing every quarter 13 weeks. The dots of each pattern (13- 13) add up to 9 1, and each season is also 9 1 day. In addition, the whole card has only two colors, red during the day and black at night. China people understand the four colors as spring, summer, autumn and winter.

The French understand the four colors as spear, square, clove leaf and red heart;

Germans understand the four colors as leaves, bells, acorns and hearts.

Italians understand the four colors as swords, coins, crutches and wine glasses;

The Swiss understand the four colors as acorns, bells, flowers and shields;

The British understand the four colors as shovel, diamond, clover and red heart.

Why to use these four patterns as the patterns and colors of playing cards has been said a lot.

There are two kinds of centralized reports:

It is said that these four colors represent the four major industries of society at that time, among which spades represent spears and symbolize soldiers; Plum blossoms represent clover flowers and symbolize agriculture; Square represents bricks used by craftsmen; The heart represents the heart and symbolizes the priest.

On the other hand, these four colors come from the patterns of ancient European divination tools, in which spades represent olive leaves and symbolize peace; Plum blossom is a four-leaf clover, which means good luck; The square is a diamond, symbolizing wealth; The heart shape symbolizes wisdom and love.

The 54 patterns of playing cards are also wonderful to explain:

The big cat (king) represents the sun, the kitten (king) represents the moon, and the remaining 52 cards represent the 52 weeks of the year;

Heart-shaped, diamond, plum blossom and spades symbolize spring, summer, autumn and winter respectively.

There are 13 cards in each suit, which means there are 13 weeks in each season.

If J, Q and K are regarded as 1 1, 12, 13, and the big cat and kitten are half points, then the total number of points in a deck of playing cards is exactly 365 points. In leap year, Wang and Xiao each calculate 1 point, totaling 366 points.
