Abstract: French Missionary Dallet (1874) described that there are many differences between Chinese culture and Korean culture. However, Chinese people and Korean commonly use Chinese character and the thousand character essay. The thousand character essay is called in Korea as Tcheonzamun (Han, 1583). Nearly all of Koreans believe that Tcheonzamun was created by Chinese people (Han, 1583). However, recently, several researchers suggested that Korean language-speaking people have created Tcheonzamun (Park et al., 2021; Kim, 2023). Chinese character was taken from the somewhat old Tcheonzamun book (Han, 1583). For the first time, deleting method was corrected. Until now, deletion of the same or the similar part was between another Chinese character (Kim, 2023). The title of this study is ‘My dear husband! I love you! (Nim(履)-a(薄)!) You are so strong! (Him(臨)-sen(深)) (Tcheonzamun 257th-272nd)’. This is the first translation through Korean pronunciation of Chinese character on Tcheonzamun. . 257-260 臨 (Im) 深(Sim) 履(Li) 薄(Bag). “힘센 님아!” Him(臨)-sen(深) Nim(履)-a(薄)! My dear husband! I love you! (Nim(履)-a(薄)!) You are so strong! (Him(臨)-sen(深)). 261-264 夙(Sug) 興(Heung) 溫(On) 凊(Tcheong). “쉬이 와서!” Swi(夙)-i(興) Wa(溫)-seo(凊)! My husband! Come to me (Wa(溫)-seo(凊)!) soon (Swi(夙)-i(興))! 265-268 似 (Sa) 蘭(Lan) 斯(Sa) 馨(Hyeong). “사람 살려!” Sa(似)-lam(蘭) Sal(斯)-lyeo(馨)! My husband, help (Sal(斯)-lyeo(馨)!) me! (Sa(似)-lam(蘭)). 269-272 如 (Yeo) 松 (Song) 之(Zi) 盛(Seong). “어서 해주셔!” Eo(如)-seo(松) Haezu(之)-syeo(盛)! My husband! Now quickly (Eo(如)-seo(松)), please do (Haezu(之)-syeo(盛)!) the thing for me, your wife! This is the second translation of on the basis of the meaning of Chinese character on Tcheonzamun. There are two repetitions for each line. It is in order to compare the deleted form with the original form of Chinese characters on the present Tcheonzamun poem. For the first time, the same parts on the same Chinese character were deleted. The bracket of [ ] was used in the next part. It is the expression of deleting same part or similar part in the same Chinese character. . 257-260 臨(Im) 深(Sim) 履(Li) 薄(Bag). 257-260 臨(Im)-口-口-口-[口-口-口] =人. 深(Sim)-氵-儿-木=冖. 履(Li)-人(儿)-尸-[夂(尸)]-曰-冫=丨. 薄(Bag)-氵-曰-艹(木)-一丶(冫)=寸.
