All three genres were originally coined by an individual and then gradually spread among the speech community to become “anonymous” texts, both oral and written. These short and concise texts contain bits of folk wisdom and may be meant to be humorous and entertaining (jokes, riddles, and anti-proverbs) or not (proverbs). This chapter is organized into three sections. While the first section addresses Hungarian proverbs and anti-proverbs, the second one treats riddles, and the third discusses jokes. Each section provides a short overview of the collection and study of the respective genre. The nature and origin of each genre, its specific features and subgenres, its pragmatic functions and usage, as well as its contemporary forms are also briefly explored. true 2022 true true true false true false NONE 2026-08-10 false 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 6 6 false 10009754,10028173 false false false 2023-02-06T08:36:15.015+0000 Fordító- és Tolmácsképző Tanszék (ELTE / BTK / NyKözv_I); Idegen Nyelvi Központ (PTE); Néprajztudományi Intézet (HRN BTK); Néprajztudományi Kutatóintézet (ELTE / HTK) 4 21 4 4 0 true 1159 true 10002 English /api/language/10002 Angol Language true 2 true true 10367 true 10017 /api/country/10017 Country true 13 /api/city/10367 City true 870 true 22451894 /api/publicationidentifier/22451894 https://doi.org/10.1093/oxfordhb/9780190080778.001.0001 10.1093/oxfordhb/9780190080778.001.0001 PublicationIdentifier true 6 DOI https://doi.org/@@@ /api/publicationsource/6 DOI PlainSource true true 10001 /api/publicationsourcetype/10001 PublicationSourceType true true 6 true false true 22451896 /api/publicationidentifier/22451896 https://www.worldcat.org/search?q=isbn%3A9780190080778 9780190080778 PublicationIdentifier true 122 ISBN https://www.worldcat.org/search?q=isbn%3A@@@ /api/publicationsource/122 ISBN PlainSource true true 10002 /api/publicationsourcetype/10002 PublicationSourceType true false 122 true false true 22451897 /api/publicationidentifier/22451897 https://www.worldcat.org/search?q=isbn%3A9780190080785 9780190080785 PublicationIdentifier true 122 ISBN https://www.worldcat.org/search?q=isbn%3A@@@ /api/publicationsource/122 ISBN PlainSource true true 10002 /api/publicationsourcetype/10002 PublicationSourceType true false 122 true false true 22451895 /api/publicationidentifier/22451895 https://academic.oup.com/edited-volume/43182 https://academic.oup.com/edited-volume/43182 PublicationIdentifier true 40 Other URL @@@ /api/publicationsource/40 Egyéb URL PlainSource true true 10006 /api/publicationsourcetype/10006 PublicationSourceType true true 40 true false true 29246790 IDENTICAL /api/publicationidentifier/29246790 http://books.google.com/books?id=AC9KEQAAQBAJ&source=gbs_ViewAPI AC9KEQAAQBAJ PublicationIdentifier true 14 http://books.google.com/books?id=@@@&source=gbs_ViewAPI /api/publicationsource/14 Google books PlainSource true true 10003 /api/publicationsourcetype/10003 PublicationSourceType true false 14 true false /api/publication/33379491 true true 23 23 /api/publicationtype/23 PublicationType 3 true 23 Book The Oxford Handbook of Slavic and East European Folklore false 33379491 false true false true true 10000201 Monograph true 23 23 /api/publicationtype/23 PublicationType 3 true 23 Book /api/subtype/10000201 Szakkönyv SubType 337 true 10000201 true Book 2025 true 1 /api/category/1 Category true 1 false 10003141 Language 10002 /api/language/10002 Angol English true 2 true PersonAuthorship 105183968 /api/authorship/105183968 1 0.25 true false Author 10018983 /api/author/10018983 Tóthné Litovkina Anna true 10018983 true T.
