Summary/Abstract: Lexical and Grammatical Continuities and Discontinuities in the Romanian and Latin Proverbs. In our paper, we analyse some Romanian and Latin proverbs recorded in a lexicographical masterwork of the Transylvanian School, such as The Lexicon of Buda (1825). Based on this inventory, our approach will investigate from a lexical and morphosyntactic perspective the internal structure of proverbs, highlighting the lexical and grammatical continuities and discontinuities between two languages and their ancient origin.
