Give oak - die. With regard to this phraseological unit, perhaps the more appropriate question is not about its meaning, but about its origin. Why, in fact, "to give oak" means to die. Linguists explain this by identifying a person with a fallen, dead tree: “Lies like a log”; "A hollow tree stands, but a strong one falls." And also with the fact that the deceased is usually placed in a wooden coffin: “Neither puffs nor breathes, lies in a dry tree”, “a house of six boards and a wooden sheepskin coat”.
But why exactly oak, and, for example, not maple or aspen? And here the scientists are. But because there is in Russian folklore the concept of "zadubet", that is, to freeze. Or here: In ancient times in Russia, nobles were buried in coffins hollowed out in the trunks of felled oaks. believes that all these explanations, but no others.

Meaning of GIVE OAK in the Phraseology Guide
GIVE OAK
rude simple. die. There are two versions of the origin of this expression. 1) The turnover arose on Russian soil and is associated with the verb zadubet - "to cool down, lose sensitivity, become hard." 2) The expression originated in the south of Russia. It can be assumed that the dead were buried under the oak, and perhaps the image of the turnover is different. It is only curious that the tree - a symbol of longevity - began to be used to denote death.

― Grandfather Daniel gave oak
(Alexander Tvardovsky, "Grandfather Danila is going to the forest", 1939).
"To give oak" means to die. But what's with the oak?
It turns out that in pagan antiquity, during life or at birth, an oak was assigned to a person in a sacred grove. That is, "they gave oak" in the sense of its purpose for a future burial.
This ancient folk tradition was preserved by the Old Believers. They hollowed out a domino from a single trunk-deck. D the slaughter coffin has always been a sign of special honor to the deceased. Although the material is not the best: hard, knotty...
"And nothing threatens you,
only when you're in an OAK coffin"
(Vladimir Vysotsky, "Merry deceased").
C Archer Peter I, simultaneously with the introduction of a tax on a beard, in January 1705 introduced a tax on oak coffins, decks, in which they buried since ancient times. A decree "On not making oak coffins" was issued. The synod sent out a strict order that "no one should be buried in oak coffins anywhere," since the coffins were hollowed out of a whole oak tree. Peter first imposed a heavy duty on dug-out coffins, and then completely forbade their manufacture. In general, the reign of Petrushka the Antichrist can be expressed in the words of Maximilian Voloshin:
"Danced, demons roamed
Across Russia far and wide.
Tears and twists snow curtains
Exposed northeast...
Howl, howl, snow elements,
Sweeping over ancient coffins:
In this wind, the whole fate of Russia -
Terrible crazy fate."
This ban is often based on economic grounds.
: they say that the oak was of strategic importance, Peter built ships from oak. The construction of only one frigate consumed more than three thousand selected trees, and under Peter more than a thousand warships were built (and all of them rotted after his death). However, ships are not built from oak alone: pine, spruce, cedar, and linden are needed here.I think that the economic reasons were still secondary. After all, it was not the material that was banned, but the technology: dugout (and not plank) oak decks. A little later, the making of "hollowed pine coffins" was also prohibited - they could now be made "only from planks".Obviously, the dugout deck is the oldest technology, the most traditional. Peter, possessed by the spirit of modernism, organically could not stand any ancient traditions. By the way, twhen domovins banned tombstones, worship crosses on the roads ...
And now we come to the most important thing. The coffin-domovina, hollowed out of a single oak trunk, resembles a dugout boat, a canoe.
If we cover this lower half of the domino with the same lid on top and cut it across in the middle, then the sawn half will look like a stupa of Baba Yaga.
In both cases - both as a boat and as a stupa - the coffin-domovina from the deck is vehicle. Somewhere on the border of two worlds - this world and the other world - stands the World Tree.
"At the seaside green oak;
Golden chain on an oak tree:
And day and night the cat is a scientist
Everything goes around in a chain ... "(A. S. Pushkin).
The picture of the world of the ancient Slavs contained the idea that somewhere on the northernmost outskirts of the earth - "near the Lukomorye" - a giant Tree rises, the crown of which rests on the sky, and the roots (whose sacred spring flows) reach the underworld.
In conspiracies, the World Tree is placed on Buyan Island in the middle of the ocean, where a “damask oak” stands on the Alatyr stone. In The White Goddess, Graves notes that the Tarot consists of 22 letters of the full alphabet of the ancient Celts and that the Hanged Man is associated with the seventh letter D - "Duir", which represents oak. The word "oak" in many European languages also means " a door".So what do we have? Being the vertical axis of the World, the World Tree connects the world of people with the "upper" (angelic) and "lower" (demonic) worlds. The tree that connects the three levels of the universe is called " expensive", along which the soul of a shaman ascends to Heaven or descends into the Underworld. Among the Slavs, the World Tree appears oak, and oak is " door"to the underworld. (Oak, among other things, is the sacred tree of Perun, which is why they still knock on wood just in case - they call Perun for help ...) The World Tree is
on Buyan Island in the middle of the ocean, and you still have to get to it. The "vehicle" of the deceased to the "door" to the other world is a coffin-boat (such as Charon's boat). In this sense, the closest equivalent of the phraseological unit "give oak" is "give a chirp" or "give thrust". The soul is a mobile substance, like mercury. From fear, the soul can go to the heels. At death, the soul leaves the body and goes to the oak. To die means "to give craving for the oak" or - in short - "to give the oak." 0
A person's life "flies" like one moment, and before we have time to fledge, gain weight, make friends, we have to leave this mortal world.

So let's continue what does it mean to give oak?

Origin writing oak
First option. Some researchers believe that this saying arose from the association of a dead person with a fallen tree. Since those times, several proverbs have been preserved on this occasion - "A hollow tree stands, but a strong one falls" or "Lies like a log."Second option. Since ancient times, people were buried in wooden coffins, which allowed the deceased not to lie in the ground, but to rest comfortably. From here, several sayings appeared - "a house of six boards and a wooden sheepskin coat" or "Neither puffs, nor breathes, lies in a dry tree." And what about the very oak? And the fact is that the dead were usually buried in dugouts made of oak.
Third option. There is a possibility that this turn of speech was formed, since in Russia the verb "zadubet" has long existed, which means "freeze", "cool down", "lose all sensitivity".
Fourth option. In the southern part of Russia in ancient times, people were buried under the canopy of mighty oaks. Probably since then, this tree, which is essentially a symbol of longevity, has turned into a symbol of death.
By reading this article, you have learned Give oak a meaning phraseology, and now you will not thoughtfully scratch your head, thinking about the meaning of this tricky proverb.
