Summary/Abstract: Paremias are phraseological units (PUs) that constitute speech acts in their own right. With the help of examples taken from contemporary Spanish novels translated into Bulgarian, we demonstrate that, just like other phraseological units, paremias have variations and different connotations that sometimes require the translator to consider different possibilities in order for the paremia to fit in the context.
