Abstract
The article draws attention to the current state of study of Rusin phraseology and paremiology in Slovakia and analyzes the most important works from the 1950s to this day. These works are the most valuable source of information about the residents of the region, the world around them, their culture, world outlook, customs, stereotypes and historical past. The following books are presented: E. Nedzelsky’s The Nation’s Word of Mouth. Proverbs – Sayings – Incantations – Riddles – Sayings of Transcarpathia, Y. Tsyhra and I. Lehdan’s People Will Say How to Tie It, M. Mushynka’s From the Depths of Ages. Anthology of Oral Folk Art of Presov Region, N. Warhol and A. Ivchenko’s Phraseological Dictionary of Lemko Dialects of Eastern Slovakia, M. Schmaida’s “... And I am also wishing you...”, J. Warhol’s Calendar and Family Ritual of Ukrainians of Slovakia, and A. Galgashov’s Struzhnitsky Walkways. The rich factual phraseological material of the Slovakian Rusins has been accumulated by scholars for decades, and a significant part of it remains in the manuscripts of the Museum of Ukrainian Culture in Svidník. Numerous dialect phrases were published in the pages of local periodicals – Nove Zhytja, Dukla and the magazine Druzhno Vpered. The author investigates paremias with animalistic and phytonymic components, as well as paremias with components – names of food and food products.
