This article examines the linguocultural and aesthetic functions of folklorisms in literary texts. Folklorisms are interpreted as elements of oral folk tradition, including proverbs, sayings, mythological images, fairy-tale motifs, legends, ritual formulas, symbolic figures, and culturally marked expressions that are artistically transformed within written literature. The study focuses on how such units preserve national memory, represent collective experience, and convey culturally specific values through the structure of a literary text. From a linguocultural perspective, folklorisms reveal the worldview, customs, ethical norms, beliefs, and historical consciousness of a people. From an aesthetic perspective, they intensify imagery, emotional expressiveness, symbolic depth, narrative rhythm, and stylistic originality. The article argues that folklorisms do not function merely as decorative traditional elements; rather, they serve as active poetic devices that shape character speech, strengthen national color, deepen the plot, and create intertextual links with oral tradition. The analysis demonstrates that folklorisms contribute to the semantic richness of literary discourse and help reveal the author’s artistic conception through culturally encoded meanings, thereby connecting individual creativity with inherited forms of collective imagination and shared aesthetic memory effectively.
