My Husband! Do not (冂) Stop(艮) Loving me (your wife)! (Tcheonzamun 417th-432nd)
French Missionary Dallet (1874) wrote in his book that the thousand character essay has been used long time in China. In Korea, the thousand character essay is called as Tcheonzamun (Han, 1583). Dallet (1874) seemed to think that Tcheonzamun is very important also in Korea, and he added tens of Chinese characters on Tcheonzamun in his book. The grammar of Chinese language and that of Korean language is very different. And the translation on Chinese language and that on Korean language must be different. In the present study, deleting method was applied (Kim, 2023). The method is the analyze or the deleting method of Chinese character (Kim, 2023). Generally, the deletion or analyze of Chinese character was established between two different Chinese characters. Sometimes, the deletion was occurred on the same Chinese character. In this case, [] mark was used in order to express the deletion on the same Chinese character. This study is the translation of the Tcheonzamun poem of (Tcheonzamun 417th-432nd). The title of this study is ‘My husband! Do not(冂) stop(艮) loving me(your wife)! (Tcheonzamun 417th-432nd)’. There are two repetitions for each line. It is in order to compare the deleted form and the original form. <Number in Tcheonzamun.
