      The image of the dragon in Hungarian folk tales is not exactly the same as the reptilian monster of European legends, but rather a humanoid figure with one or more heads, endowed with human characteristics. Each dragon's head symbolizes a soul.

    Elaine Canby is right. This tale comes directly from the legend of Jack and the beanstalk, which is from Cornwall, England. This tale originated with real events in early English history, taking place at a place called St. Michaels, a popular tourist site today. The Hungarian tale comes from the original, with it's "Fe Fi Fo Fum, I smell the blood of an Englishman". It's not just some silly children's story. And it's not from Hungary.

    Tenth one with the title right, 10 out of 12. This one is basically "Jack and the Beanstalk", but instead of a giant it's a hydra (who looks more like a lizard man than a dragon). P.S. The magic man who exchanges the bean for the cow has a similar design to the shepherd from "Only Donkeys Don't Eat the Spoon".

    • @elodmarton9588
      @elodmarton9588 5 лет назад +6

      Elaine Canby I think the dragon is depicted as someone with a human-like form, because in ancient Hungarian legends dragons possessed many human-like qualities (they were more like spirits of the underworld). Also, he had 3 heads, as in Hungary dragons always have multiple heads (either 3, 7, 9 or 12, as those are symbolic/ magical numbers). We used to have a very cute Puppet Show called "Dummy the Dragon" (Süsü a Sárkány) which was about a humble, but slightly mentally challenged dragon who had only one head, so he was constantly ridiculed and bullied by the other dragons, but he always saved the day in the end.
