Analysis of the Korean fairy tale “

하늘은

(hanrn anda)- The sky knows ” :

그런데

농부는

떠올랐답니다

.

그래서

농부는

일어났겠어

?

Translation

:

But the farmer suddenly thought, and rubbed his
aching forehead with a black oak, saying, "The sky
knows better than I do, what would happen if a
big watermelon fell from a tree instead?" I think
my forehead is broken. The old man simply
laughed.[1,35]

Here “

도토리

(to‘to‘ri) - black oak” is the fruit of an

oak tree.

Due to the fact that the word is an alternative to
the Uzbek language, it was translated using the
concretization method. It is difficult to say that

this word is absolutely Uzbek because it is a
foreign word.

In Korea, the oak tree means worship of heaven
and earth as a symbol of abundance and gratitude.
It is considered a miracle tree.[2,35] In this tale,
too, the oak tree and its fruit may have been
symbolically mentioned as an example to the
farmer.

Among the Korean fairy tales, “

임금님

귀는

당나귀

(imgmnim kvinin tangnakvi kvi)”- The

king's ear is like a donkey's ear ", one of the most
common names of tree in Korean folklore is the
bamboo tree:

임금님은

몹시

, "

대나무를

모두

베어버려라

!"

명령을

내렸고

대나무를

Translation

:

The king was very angry and said, "Cut off all the
bamboos!" When ordered, all bamboo trees were
cut down and no sound was heard.

Bamboo is a winter flowering plant. It is always
green as a symbol of the strong friendship and
beautiful upbringing of the East. Also in Korea,
this tree is a Buddhist symbol.

In this passage, “

대나무

(tenamu)- bamboo" is

considered. In fact, in ancient Chinese hieroglyphs
(hanjcha),

(te) means big,

나무

(namu) means

tree, and means "big tree". Because this tree is an
image of a Buddha, Koreans consider it to be the
highest among the trees.

However, in translation, there is an alternative to
the word, which is given as bamboo in Russian
and Uzbek. In this case, it is advisable to translate
by the method of concretization.

It is worth mentioning the presence of "hancha"
in Korean words. Until now, hieroglyphs have
been widely used in Korean writing. Dictionaries
have identified 53,000 hieroglyphs.

As the result of translation and analysis of Korean
fairy tales it is known that there are so many pros
and cons of translating fairy tales. It requires only
to know the main methods of translation.
