Summary/Abstract: In the article paroemia is considered as a language sign marked with a special connection of the form and the content that generally is looked upon as a means to preserve, achieve, process and give the information. Proverb semantics is motivated through its formal structure that is originating a meaningful content of the utterance. On the one hand, the proverb meaning is affected by the constituents semantics that generate a surface content, and on the other, in most cases the structural components may be altered both cognitively and conceptually that generally evokes quite a different depth sense.
