Summary/Abstract: The present paper approaches the proverbs and sayings related to the set of values which are considered to be specific to Romanian culture. Starting from the set of values specific to Romanian culture, as they have been defined in remarkable works in different domains such as sociology, psychology, aesthetics and pragmatics, the attempt to connect the set of structures of language to the set of values shows that in creating and promotion of a language structure, more than one value is involved.
