halk dili: folk speech veya folksay
folk speech-also called folksay, a term preferred by many folklorist-is not an object like a folk song or tale but a generous category including: riddles and conundrums, puns and plays-on-words, jokes of numerous kinds, sayings and proverbs and proverbial smiles, folk vocabulary and all types of slang, children's rhymes and jingles, word games, tongue twisters and more. Folk speech is powerful language that can be rude, violent and hateful; but more often it is playful, humorous, creative, lively and ever-changing.
