Introduction. Investigating paremia stock within ancient tradition is basically rooted in Aristotle’s writings. However, language studies still lack the unified paremia notion. Therefore, problem of its scholar definition is quite significant and needs consideration. The variety of functions, specific genre applications, syncretic nature of their semantics as well as pragmatic features add to the complexity of defining paremia that though being investigated for quite long time yet now still join up a sophisticated discussion. Purpose. The purpose lies in analyzing the problems of defining proverbs as cognitive discursive phenomenon, the national culture output, multifunctional folk genre, and giving own proper paremia definition based on most appropriate linguistic and folklore studies. Results. Paremia both presuppose some allegoric idea, and as well reveal essential human, ethic. The definition of paremia appears generally complicated being in the first place regarded through folklore, poetics, linguistics with concentration on different aspects of paremia and on its controversial features; secondly, through historic lexical semantics in multiple meanings, and thirdly, through its vague linguistic status among other units of the nominative language system. Originality. The main definition for paremia is proposed as an ethnic culturally marked utterance phrase, formerly precedent, reproduced, steady in form, with deeply motivated meaning, functioning as a text component. Тhe proverb sentence has the following integral characteristics: 1) ethnocultural marking; 2) precedent; 3) reproducibility and stability; 4) deep nature of the content; 5) brevity and clarity; 6) pragmatism; 7) text-discursive immersion. Conclusion. Modern linguistic studies had put paremia into a quite new perspective: it’s the 20th - 21st century linguistic investigation mostly cognitively aimed at the discourse features of the language phenomena that enable the application of the newest approaches to the lingual sense of paremia.
