Reflection of Images of Domestic Animals in Folklore of Different Peoples

Abstract

The process of mastering any language is associated with familiarity with the culture of these people. Folklore as a part of culture is well known to native speakers, is a fabric of cultural ideas and traditions, and is inextricably linked with the history of domestic animals. These creatures, formerly wild companions, were strongly settled into human communities, shaping and being influenced by our narratives. The author examines the images of domestic animals of different peoples that are found in folklore texts. Attention is drawn to the fact that each nation has its attitude toward a particular animal, which is most often reflected in proverbs and sayings. This investigation explores the metaphorical functions of common farmyard companions such as cows, dogs, and cats in folktales throughout the world. The loyal dog, a defender and companion, may transform into a frightening guardian spirit. Finally, folklore provides insight into the unique bond between humans and the tamed world, illustrating how these creatures have not only served us but also captivated our imaginations throughout millennia.
