Abstract. Paremias, characterized by a unique cultural and pragmatic potential, find a deep connection with the material and spiritual essence of the people, their historical roots, customs, long-standing traditions and unique ideological features. They carry a rich heritage, passed down from ancestors to descendants through many generations. The current relevance of this article is due to the rapid development of comparative linguistics, both in terms of deepening and improving its theoretical foundations, and in terms of a detailed analysis of individual linguistic aspects. Paying attention to paremias in the context of comparative linguistics opens up new horizons for understanding cross-cultural interactions and the influence of language on the formation of sociocultural norms. The analysis of these phraseological constructions allows us to deepen our understanding of the psychology of the people, revealing hidden aspects of their mentality and attitude to the world. Thus, paremias become the key to a deeper perception of cultural and linguistic processes, reflecting changes in society and contributing to the preservation of the diversity of cultural heritage. The study of paremias opens the door for us to a deeper understanding of cultural diversity and its impact on intercultural relations.
