#FolkloreThursday #Celtic: `On the second morning after the eve of #Samhan Cascorach went out to the same cairn, and set his people about it, and the wolves came there and stretched themselves to listen to the music. And Cascorach was saying to them: "If you were ever women," he said, "it would be better for you to be listening to the music as women than as wolves." And they heard that, and they threw off the dark trailing coverings that were about them, for they liked well the sweet music of the Sidhe.
And when Caoilte saw them there side by side, and elbow by elbow, he made a cast of his spear, and it went through the three women, that they were like a skein of thread drawn together on the spear. And that is the way he made an end of the strange, unknown three. And that place got the name of the Valley of the Shapes of the Wolves.`

The story goes that the #Koreans are actually just one of the many #Chinese tribes just like how #Mongolians are. One reason usually used is the Koreans call themselves #Han.

I admit, I was also led to believe this "connection" is true, however, it is false!

The #Hangugeo "Han" means a leader. There is no connection whatsoever, etymologically to the Chinese "Han", even though it is written the same way in Hanja and Chinese, respectively.

The Korean "Han" refers to the Three Leaders who rose up after GoGoryeo (ancient Goryeo) ended. These Three Leaders, or Three Hans, kept the "Korean" spirit and identity despite the foreign forces around them.

It does not mean that they were originally Han Chinese. Again, it's similar to my previous posts about words that exist in different languages but have different meanings. Korean "Han" is different from the Chinese "Han".

The ancient Koreans have always been an independent Nation living across what we know today as the Korean peninsula. They were never Chinese, and never one of the many Chinese tribes. The Korean peninsula is theirs and theirs alone. It's their homeland.

Another funny words that means differently in another #language.

The #Hangugeo (#Korean) word "namu" means "tree" or "wood".

In #Filipino, it is the short form of the curse word "p**ang ina mo" or "p**a ang ina mo" (which in English translates to "your mom is a c**t").

Of course, in Korean, you don't normally use words by itself. So there shouldn't be cases wherein there might be confusion. But if you got into a certain situation this happened, just explain what you meant. 😅 Otherwise, you'll hear a reply like, "namu rin" (something like, "your mom is a c**t too"). 😅😅
