Marketing - Marketing / Market Research | | English term or phrase: Russian Doll - Russian Dolls | Dear Colleagues,
We are researching keywords that Korean people use when looking for Russian dolls online. 'Russian doll(s)' can also be called 'matryoshka(s)', 'matrioshka(s)', 'Russian nesting doll(s)', 'Russian stacking doll(s)', 'babushka(s)', 'babooshka(s)' but these are all in English. What about Korean? Is there a specific Korean word(s) that is used for 'Russian doll(s)' because the direct transaltion from English may not work for Korean people.
Any ideas / thoughts are welcome.
Could I please ask you to give Korean suggestions in Korean, but explanations to them in English (as we donot know Korean).
Thank you for your help with this. |

34 mins confidence:  peer agreement (net): -1 | russian doll - russian dolls 러시아 전통 목각인형, 마트료슈카, 바부슈카
Explanation:
Most Korean people just say "러시아 전통 목각인형", which means literally "Russian Traditional Wooden Dolls". Also, you can give more detailed explanation the doll, saying it in Korean just like it sounds in Russian, for example, matryoshka(s) = 마트료슈카, babushka(s) = 바부슈카.
