The Meaning of the Expression "Яблоко раздора" (Apple of Discord)

The expression "Яблоко раздора" (pronounced "yabloko razdora") is a Russian idiom that translates to "apple of discord" in English. It refers to a situation or object that causes conflict, disagreement, or discord among people. The phrase is derived from Greek mythology, specifically the story of the Golden Apple of Discord.

According to Greek mythology, Eris, the goddess of discord, threw a golden apple into a gathering of gods and goddesses. The apple had the inscription "To the fairest" on it, which sparked a dispute among the goddesses Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite, each claiming to be the fairest and deserving of the apple. This disagreement eventually led to the Trojan War.

In a broader sense, the expression "Яблоко раздора" can be used to describe any situation or object that becomes a source of conflict or disagreement among people. It symbolizes the catalyst or focal point that ignites tensions and divisions.
