Section: «Anecdotes, jokes»
Anecdote (Greek anekdotos - unpublished) is a short, humorous story, a genre of folk folklore. Its main features are the skill of telling a joke, showing wit and deliberately joking, rather than the truthfulness of the narration. Anecdotes are often told about real people. They are of two types, with two intentions. One group is created with the aim of showing a positive image of members of society, their high moral and psychological qualities. They are told with intelligence, making people laugh, making fun of negative phenomena in society and unpleasant traits in people, giving the story a cheerful character. An example of this is anecdotes associated with the names Kozhanasyr, Aldarkose, Zhirenshe, Tazsha Bala. Anecdotes in the second group are told with malicious intent, with a foreign opinion, with the aim of mocking historical figures, belittling their role, their contributions to the people, weakening their love for the people, and the desire and imitation of young people. They portray these people as if they were being spat upon and accidentally thrown into the mouth. Such harmful, cryptic anecdotes mislead and mislead people who have not yet formed their own opinions, are politically ignorant, and do not understand their civic place in society.
