Summary/Abstract: Linguistic expression, both verbal and written, is an important part of existence and interaction between people. Verbal expressions are the most important part of human communication, and they used to be highly appreciated in the past. The ability to express oneself in an independent way used to be a part of good behaviour in all social classes and strata. Good verbal abilities were the chance of young people for their success in both professional and personal life (Palenčarova et al., 2003, pp.171 – 172). In this work we will deal with linguistic means, which were used in the period of Ancient Greece. Therefore we believe it important to define language, linguistic means, which we apply in contemporary, literary Slovak language.
