Prispevek se osredinja na terminološka vprašanja v okviru paremiologije – vede, ki preučuje pregovore in njim sorodne enote. Izpostavlja vprašanje njene znanstvene avtonomnosti in problematiko definiranja osnovne enote preučevanja, torej paremije. V sklepnem delu je poudarjena potreba po novih jezikoslovnih paremioloških raziskavah, ki bodo v prihodnje pripomogle tudi k terminološkemu izčiščevanju. The article focuses on terminology referred to paremiology — a science which examines proverbs and related units. It outlines the question of paremiology's scientific autonomy and the problem of defining the basic units of the study, i.e., paremia. In the conclusion the analysis emphasizes a need for new paremiological linguistic researches that will also help to expand terminology.
