Riddles in different peoples of the world
Riddles are called differently by different people. The Balkars, for example, call riddles elber, where "el" means village, and "ber" means dai. Whoever solves a riddle in the game "gets" a "village" or "city" as a reward.
Who collects more "villages" and "cities", is the winner. The Chuvash riddle is called "tupmalli yeah" or "small yeah", which literally means "a tale requiring a clue" or "a word that, if not solved, will be followed by a sale".
Selling is the punishment for failing to solve the riddle by appointing a bride or groom from among the most unattractive persons. Why is a riddle called a fairy tale? A riddle is called a fairy tale because many riddles contain a fairy tale plot and can be regarded as a special kind of fairy tales.
The unsolved riddle is given the opportunity of a ransom, in exchange for the answer he can tell the tale (sing a song, dance, or riddle an unknown riddle). Such a ransom is called a "fairy tale for sale."
Riddles are clever and highly poetic, and many carry a moral message. Accordingly, they have an impact on mental, aesthetic, and moral education. In ancient times, they probably fulfilled all these functions more or less equally. But later, they were dominated by mental education.
