Summary/Abstract: Romanian folklore remains an inexhaustible source of inspiration and expressiveness. The present paper focuses on idioms and expressions from folklore. From their analysis, it can be seen that, on the one hand, popular or regional words are used in the Romanian language to form various expressions, and, on the other hand, the Dictionary of Romanian Expressions records formulations known only in certain regions or popular expressions. The purpose of the study is to discuss the expressive potential of the territorial ramifications of the Romanian language.
