Functions of Humor in Persian Proverbs.

      Аннотация: Culture is a collection of knowledge, ways and manners of life, which is the foundation of any civilization. All societies have their own culture, but according to the social conditions that the society has gone through, its culture is also strong and weak. In other words, the culture of each society is affected by the social conditions and the historical course of that society. These conditions affect the internal structure of the society and its relations with other societies. Culture gives each society an independent personality that distinguishes it from other societies in its concepts and lifestyle. This has a lasting impact on the society over time. Culture has different aspects: Religious, religious, national, social and global aspects. Cultural aspects are important in two ways: First- the correctness of those concepts and their examples in different subjects. Second- their prevalence and distribution in the society and masses of people. Anyway, these cultural aspects lead to the recognition of the society as an old and rooted society or a society with a new and emerging culture.
