도마에

도마에

"도마에" refers to "on the cutting board" or "on the chopping board" in English.

Here, "도마에" refers to a physical cutting board where vegetables are placed as part of food preparation.

도마에 채소를 놓았다.

I placed vegetables on the cutting board.

In this sentence, "도마에 오른" metaphorically represents the topic currently under discussion or debate, illustrated as being placed on a cutting board for examination.

도마에 오른 저 문제를 해결합시다.

Let's address the issue that is up for debate.

Again, "도마에 오르다" is used idiomatically to mean that something has become subject to examination or discussion.

그 사건은 도마에 오르게 되었습니다.

The incident has come under scrutiny.
