"" - what is this about? Why chew good? What is it really about? Some children ask why they are chewing good.
One of my acquaintances, who now already has grandchildren, recalls that as a child she sobbed bitterly, pitying poor Rapunk (such a name!), Who seemed to her in the lines of A.S. Pushkin "And the poor SLAVE died at the feet of the invincible ruler."The case with this very RAPUNCOMby no means the only one. She also says that she once made her parents laugh a lot, pestering them with a request to sing a song to her. "YOU WILL NOT POIS YOUR DOG."Nobody knew such a song. And only much later it turned out that it was about the lines “ That you burn for me with a tender passion "from the "Neapolitan Song".
Everyone can give a lot of such examples. We hope that with the help of readers our card index will be significantly replenished: usually the memory of any person tenaciously keeps such amusing cases of childhood.
It is not necessarily the lines of poetry that may be reconstructed. One of the residents of Tashkent is
said that his little daughter thinks that the metro station is not called "Alshiera Navoi Square" and "SQUARE FOR TWO"Five-year-old Lenochka, a resident of St. Petersburg, is convinced that there is a metro station called "AREA WITH TAILS".She heard this every time an automatic voice spoke in the train carriage: "The next station is Vosstaniya square").
We are able to register only a tiny fraction of cases (in our book we are talking about children, but this phenomenon is also known in the speech of adults), when the child does not notice that he perceives certain fragments of the text differently from everyone else. This is revealed if the child begins to ask questions about RAPUNKAor something else, or an adult notices any inconsistency in the transmission of sound.
We will talk here about the deformation that poetic and song texts undergo, although much of what will be discussed can be extended to prosaic texts, as well as to the "mishearing" so well known to us in our everyday conversations.
Why do such transformations occur? All of these phenomena have deep linguistic and psychological reasons. Truly, everyone hears not what is actually pronounced, but what he is able to comprehend.
Children often do not understand individual words or expressions in the text and sometimes do not fully grasp the content of the text. "Emptiness" can be filled with other content - the child reconstructs the text, introducing a meaning that is acceptable to him. In this case, the sound may not change at all, change slightly and change dramatically.
Examples of occasional perception in which the sound does not change at all:
What we plant What we plant
planting forests! A COTTAGE FOX?
Plantinginterpreted as an adjective to fox, the meaning of which is not clear, but the grammatical agreement is correct. Will I burn in the crucible of passion Will I burn in the crucible of passion Or will adversity temper me?Or will they temper me ON THE PAST?
These are lines from the TV movie "Dog in the Manger", addressed to adults, but very loved by children. Word attack the child has not met yet, but to fall - met often. True, it is not entirely clear how you can temper someone on someone's mouth, but after all, children have long come to terms with the fact that the speech of adults is full of absurdities and not everything can be fully understood.
They began to live, liveThey began to live, live,
Yes, it's good to make money. AND GOOD TO CHEW.
Who it RECEIVEDand why chew it? Some people think it's someone's name. To make good - a stable expression that is often found in fairy tales. But the unmotivatedness of the combination leads the child away from the correct understanding of the meaning of the word, since it is used here in a meaning unusual for the child and in the genitive case that is unmotivated from the point of view of modern language norms.
Satan rules the ball there. SATANATAM rules the ball.
SATANATAM -a creature, of course, mysterious to a child, but no more than Satan. Expression rule the ball only partially understandable. It turns out that one unknown is replaced by another, nothing more. Stress on there, extremely weightless, helps two words merge into one whole.
In most of these cases, a sound restructuring of the text also occurs in the child's speech, sometimes accompanied by a change in its rhythm and size. The favorite children's poetic meter is trochee. This was shown by K.I. Chukovsky. It is no coincidence that most of the first two-syllable children's words are stressed on the first syllable. Examples of restructuring poems accompanied by resizing can be cited:
Little Christmas tree The Christmas tree is cold in winter
Cold in winter. We took the Christmas tree home.

"Why are they chewing good?" - this question can confuse anyone who hears it for the first time. Those who are already familiar with such questions of some young children and the situations in which they appear will only smile.
What is it about the phrase "Why chew good?"
Despite the widespread belief that such a question can only be asked by a small child who does not have an even larger vocabulary, many of us may admit that sometimes we do not understand what is being said in songs or poems. It seems that all the words are clear, but the meaning is difficult to grasp. This is due to the fact that our hearing isolates familiar combinations in oral speech, and the brain rethinks them. This effect is called deafening, in the English version - mondegrin. Unlike homophones - words that sound the same, but have different spellings and meanings (threshold - park, ball - point, fetus-raft), deafness can be formed where the sound convergence of different words is accompanied by a misunderstanding of the general meaning for various reasons. One of the most popular children's mishearing is the final phrase from the majority of Russian fairy tales: "And they began to live well, make good money", interpreted in "Good chew" and "Let the pedestrians run awkwardly through the puddles", which turned into "Let the Clumsy run." The most famous adult version of this expression is I. Sarukhanov's song "Violin-Fox" or "Squeak of the Wheel", and it is currently registered under two names.
Young children are more likely to find themselves in situations where an unfamiliar combination of sound combinations is replaced by a formally familiar one. For example, K. Chukovsky talked about how he read to his son an epic, in which the words “I’ll take Kiev City to its fullest” were understood by the child as “I’ll take Kiev City to Apollo” (“Apollo” was the name of the magazine , in whose editorial father he was often taken). Questions arising from children in connection with such deafness, and asked by them to adults, often cause confusion, so they are not obvious to those who heard everything correctly.
Such errors of speech communication were committed by both F.M.Dostoevsky and A. Bely, and they do not mean at all that the authors should be accused of ignorance of grammatical constructions. Therefore, there is nothing shameful in the fact that sometimes unknown animals are born - "good", no. On the contrary, deliberately incorrect recognition of phrases and individual words often becomes a feature of certain TV or radio broadcasts or show programs - jokes by N. Fomenko, humorous releases of Ural dumplings.
On one of the forums, I found an interesting question. Many parents wondered why children ask: Why chew good?
When I found out who he was and why he was eaten, I felt funny.
Little children, and even adults, it happens that they do not perceive what they read properly.
- For example, they said from the hatch, but you can hear a spiteful person.
- From mint - crumpled.
- Awkward things - I carry different things.
- The mute is not mine.
There are a lot of options.
This phenomenon is called homophony, and Wikipedia has an article about it.
Let's get back to the question: "Why are they chewing good?"
Parents often read fairy tales. My child and I love to read a book before going to bed.
As a rule, literature with fairy tales always ends with good.
Often in Russian folk tales and not only the work ends with the following words: "they began to live and make good money."
Now we take it and, with the help of homophony, say "Good to chew".
Explain to the child that the good does not exist, and that it is necessary to perceive the good in the right way.
That the main characters began to live and do good deeds.
Previously, I did not know about homophony, and even more so about Dobraan.
By the way, my daughter and I never had such questions. But now I can definitely answer the question: "Why are they chewing good?"
"Why are they chewing good?" - what is this about?
Let's answer the question why chew doran? so: in order to have more!
This mysterious one is finished! The more it chew, the more it becomes ...
And all because children often hear in the speech of adults the word chew than make money - so they hear about the mysterious kind in a fairy tale :).
Here is such a task can be found in the Russian language:
First you need to guess that we are actually talking about the ending of many fairy tales: they were left to live and live, and, as they say, make good money. A child, on the other hand, does not always hear the way adults hear, and it is likely that many babies perceive the phrase as Good to chew .
So, we figured it out. Now you need to understand what is meant by the word good. Probably under good material values \u200b\u200bare meant, which, as you know, are bought for money. That is, in order to settle down with good, you must be a rich person. From this we can draw the following conclusion: the correct answer in the task is C) about wealth.
Small children (and sometimes adults, too, why hide there) do not always perceive the spoken text aloud as written. As an example, we can cite the name (and perception of the first lines of the chorus) of Igor Sarukhanov's song Violin-fox - clearly heard Wheels creak ... - the author himself has repeatedly spoken about this. In this case, we are dealing with the phenomenon homophonywhen words, phrases (or parts of words or phrases) are perceived completely differently from how they are written. It's good to chew - this is the phrase Good to make money, which is not correctly recognized by children; it is very often used in Russian folk tales as a conclusion.
(Source).
Small children have not yet formed a correct speech, and therefore they sometimes find the words in fairy tales read aloud incredible, and sometimes we hear not what they say, for example, we hear obscene words in foreign songs.
So, children hear:
Yes, it's good to make money
but it seems to them:
Good to chew.
And the logical question is: what kind of got? Why chew it? Here you can dream up and even draw this Dobran. Laugh at the same time.
I suppose that small children, not hearing that the end of the fairy tale And it's good to make money , think of it themselves). As one of the options It's good to chew).
I think that in this case we are talking about Kindness.
But these are just my assumptions. Which seem to me to be true, because I simply have no other explanation.
Although I still found such a page on the net. Apparently this is from modern books that I have not met.
Most likely, children are confused by the phrase Good to make money. It sounds strange in their head, so they get confused and believe that someone is going to chew good. I'll have to explain. In general, children's pearls are cool. Their thinking is sometimes fascinating.
For many children, instead of pronouncing Good to make money Dobra is heard to chew. Very often, many fairy tales end with this phrase.
It is necessary to explain to the child what good is and what the words “make money” mean.
I explained to my child that good deeds and things are good and the heroes of fairy tales always live good.
I remember this phrase since childhood AND GOOD TO LIVE... I read a lot of books, especially fairy tales, and therefore I have this phrase until now, when we are small, we very often paraphrase a lot of things, a lot of words and so on. Moreover, many people read fairy tales at night, and already almost asleep, children can hear anything. This phrase appeared in children. Why chew good?... That only children do not see and hear.
Many children, listening to the fairy tales they read, perceive the phrase They began to live and live and make good money quite differently. The prefix on in the word get rich they attach to the ending in the word good and therefore, the children do not hear good to make money but good to chew. That's the whole secret why children ask: Why chew good. In general, this is from a series of the famous book by Korney Chukovsky From two to five , in which there are a lot of such funny children's expressions.
This question is characteristic only of small children who still cannot read fairy tales on their own and perceive everything by ear.
So, many fairy tales end with a standard and familiar phrase to all of us:
The kid isolates the combinations familiar to him, respectively, he comes across the familiar word live which he perceives as chew. And since is kind he does not know, hence the above question itself arises.
Yesterday at our school the kids were writing the Russian Bear Cub - Linguistics for Everyone Olympiad. Of course, the tasks for 6-7 grades were more difficult than for the third. But the child coped well with them. Hope for a good place. We will wait for the results of the competition on the official website of the "bear cub".
The Olympics questions were interesting, and not as bad as last year. Of course, I had to puzzle over many of the answers, but at least the tasks were logical and it was in the Russian language, and not on what topic, as then. Here, check out the questions of the Russian Bear Cub contest - 2016-2017 for grades 6-7. I also wrote our answers to them, which I think are correct.
