Folktales are prose narratives, often transmitted orally and used as cultural entertainment or as a way of passing on traditions. The principal kinds of folktales are fairy tales or wonder tales (Märchen), which are fictitious, legends, which are allegedly true, and myths, which are concerned with the sacred.
