cucumber to cucumber!
Mom did what she had to
in the evening and in the morning.
And in the winter now we will
crunch your skin together!
Let's not forget our dacha
bring manure in the spring!
We will bring, put in the beds,
to be all right
to be friendly so, in a row,
a detachment of cucumbers has ascended!
2) Oh, grandfather! How many cucumbers around ...

Cucumber grows in the garden, covered with a leaf,

(A. Shlygin)
5) Look at the cucumber! Cucumber is so smart...

(I. Maznin)
There is even a whole poetic tale about cucumbers.
A fairy tale about how cucumbers and tomatoes fought.
We grew up in a wet garden.
They lived in friendship and order.
We loved the color green
The hot ball of the sun.
Rain (but not very often)
Let it be with a thunderstorm, however.
We are not afraid of lightning flashes,
Next to the bed of the stake-tower
Thunder is taken away from the leaves,
They won't let you beat the flowers.
There will be a glorious harvest
Come to clean up.
(S. Medvedev)

Cucumbers are also often found in prose. For example, there are two strikingly different fairy tales “Cucumber” and “How cucumbers were going to the market” (look at http://subscribe.ru/archive/lit.kids.malenkiigenii/200010/21010504.html). The first tells about how Cucumber, having run away from home, ran around the garden and asked the animals what they were for. It turned out that they all benefit and all eat something. Cucumber was surprised that he was not useful, and was afraid that they would eat him too. Then he decided to return home, thinking that no one would eat him there. Here his mistress ate!
And the second tale tells about two cucumbers who decided not to go to the market on dogs, but to go on foot. They are tired, thinner, sluggish. Nobody wanted to buy them. Then the cucumbers realized that they still had to ride on dogs.
Cucumber can play in fairy tales not only the main role. In the Armenian Tale of the Unprecedented Cucumber, the bride of the prince emerges from the cucumber, and then they both experience extraordinary adventures. More details at http://armeniantales.narod.ru/ta070.htm
Very interesting properties of cucumber and cabbage were beaten by a girl from Chuvashia Leysen Gafurova. Here the cucumber is also not the main character, but one of the main ones.
"The Tale of Three Friends - Cucumber, Tomato and Cabbage"
Once upon a time there were vegetables in the same garden. They were all friends with each other. Cucumber, Tomato and Cabbage were especially friendly.
Once Cucumber called everyone to go swim in the river. So the three of them went to the river. When they reached the shore, Cucumber immediately jumped into the water. Pomodoro decided to wait until Cabbage undressed.
A whole day had already passed, and Kapusta kept undressing and undressing. The water began to get colder, but Cucumber was still waiting for his friends to enter the water, and he was covered with pimples all over. The tomato spent the whole day under the sun waiting for the Cabbage and turned very red. But Cabbage still could not undress.
Completely frozen, Cucumber was tired of waiting for his friends, and got out of the water. He went back to the garden. It was already dark. Tomato and Cabbage, without bathing, returned for him.
Since then, pimples began to appear on cucumbers, tomatoes began to blush in the sun, and cabbages began to sit in clothes all summer.

In the fairy tale "The Adventures of Dunno and His Friends" it is mentioned that the Flower City stands on the banks of the Cucumber River, which is so called because many cucumbers grow along the banks of this river.
Sometimes a cucumber is a deeply negative character in fairy tales. For example, in the fairy tale "Down with the Cucumber King" by Christina Nöstlinger, a creature similar to a cucumber in a crown appears in an ordinary family and begins to establish its own rules there, forcing everyone to take care of it. The family was divided into two camps: one for the king, the other against. The children begin to fight this creature, which they nicknamed Cucumber, and only when the whole family rallied, Cucumber was expelled. With it, past conflicts also disappeared. Thus, the negative character cucumber plays a positive role in the story, and the moral of the story is: do not quarrel with your family, otherwise you will also have a fat proud Cucumber.
Consider the sound analysis of the words "cucumber" and the seemingly more pleasant word "cucumber".
The column of highlighted digits is the average score for the entire word. Estimates equal to 3 show that there is no word according to this criterion, i.e. the average. 1 and 2 highlighted in red refer to the left criterion in this pair, 4 and 5 (blue) to the right one. Ratings 1 and 5 have a "very" connotation.
So, conclusions:
2) The secret is revealed: why the word "cucumber" is not found in conspiracies, sentences and spells. By no criterion is this word close to 1 or 5 points, hence it has a weak magical load. Knowing that it would not have much effect, people did not use it in magical phrases, because there are words that are much stronger and more powerful.
3) Combinations of “rec” and “rchik” have their own magic: “rec” is very small, this combination is suitable for reducing spells, “rchik” is very fast, suitable for accelerating spells. By the way, in the reducing spell "Reducio" there are just the sounds [p '], [e] (since all sounds in the spell are pronounced clearly) and [c].
The color analysis of the word will be carried out only by vowels.
Vowel sounds have the following coloration (from the point of view of the author of this study):
[a] - red;
[and] - blue;
[o] - yellow;
[y] - black;
[s] - white;
[e] - green.
Consider first the word cucumber with vowel letter-sounds. This word contains "o", "u", "e". The first sound in a word counts as four sounds, and the stressed sound counts as two. So, in the word "cucumber" there are four yellow letter-sounds "o", one black "u" and two green "e". Well, it seems to be true. After all, the cucumber is actually covered with a green peel on top, inside it is lighter, this can try to explain the abundance of yellow in this word, and a small amount of black is pimples. But the inside of a cucumber is actually closer in color to white than to yellow. If we now turn exclusively to vowel sounds, then we can hear that the first vowel O sounds indistinct due to its second pre-stressed place in the word and even more like Ы. That way everything falls into place. [s] just white.
The word "cucumber" is not mentioned in conspiracies and sentences, is not used in spells, but there is a mention of it in dream books. Here are the interpretations of the dream about the cucumber from several dream books:
1. A cucumber seen in a dream - to excellent health and prosperity in business.
For patients, this dream promises a speedy recovery. Lovers - good changes.
2. Men dream of cucumbers - for money, women - for gifts, girls - for meeting young people. Cucumbers in the snow - mean gossip about lovers. Yellow, rotten cucumbers - symbolize men incapable of love. Buying and carrying cucumbers means thankless work and trouble; sowing cucumbers in the garden - to significant monetary losses.
3. For a woman - suitors; cucumbers in the snow - gossip in connection with lovers; to see cucumbers - to money (for a man).
4. See or eat - something good is waiting for you.
5. The dream in which you see a cucumber is a favorable sign. It promises health and prosperity. If patients dream that they are growing cucumbers, then soon their well-being will improve much. For family people, such a dream promises pleasant changes in life.
From all these examples, it can be seen that a dream about a cucumber is most likely a good dream.

Etymological Dictionary of the Russian Language
Cucumber
Ancient Greek - agourus (immature).
The word "cucumber" was borrowed from the ancient Greek language in the middle of the 13th century, although this version seems rather doubtful to many researchers. Some of them speak of borrowing from oriental languages, but it has not yet been possible to establish which ones.
The ancient Greeks used unripe cucumber fruits in food, hence its name. When cucumbers were brought to the territory of modern Russia, they retained their original name and method of consumption.
Similar words can be found in Danish (agurk), German (Gurke) and some other languages.
Related are:
Polish - ogurek.
Czech - okurka.

Cucumber
Genus of annual and perennial herbaceous plants family pumpkin. Includes approx. 30 species growing wild mainly in Africa and East Asia. Cucumber sowing, unknown in the wild, is an annual vegetable crop grown on all continents. Lianoid plant with creeping stem dl. up to 2 m (if there is a support, it curls, clinging to it with antennae). There are bush and semi-bush forms with a short (20 cm) stem. The leaves are large, 5-lobed, rough. The flowers are yellow, usually dioecious (plants are monoecious). Males are collected in an inflorescence (5–7 each), females are usually solitary. Cross pollination, but sometimes fruits are formed without fertilization (see); parthenocarpic forms of greenhouse hybrids do not contain seeds. Numerous varieties have fruits of various shapes (from round to oblong) and sizes (length from 5 to 100 cm), varied in intensity of skin color (from almost white to dark brown), pubescence and tuberosity. Unripe fruits are used for food - Zelentsy (6-15-day ovaries), reaching by this time the length inherent in the variety. They contain a lot of water (95-98%), but the mineral salts dissolved in it are in a very good combination, so cucumbers are very useful. They are used fresh, salted and pickled. The birthplace of culture is India and China, where the cucumber is grown St. 5 thousand years. It was also cultivated in the countries of the ancient world. Came to the Slavs from Byzantium. Immediately became one of the leading cultures. In Russia, it has been widely grown since the 16th century, in the south - in open ground, in the central and northern regions (even in the Arctic) - in greenhouses and greenhouses. Melon belongs to the genus cucumber.
