Abstract
The purpose of this article is to reveal the linguistic and stylistic features of E. Krotky’s humorous idiostyle in the aphorism genre. That includes different types of the lexical dominants, which are the organizing centers of the punning aphorisms: polysemic, homonymic, paronymic, pseudo-antonymous, and pseudo-synonymous. This paper studies various ways of the authorial punning transformation of phraseological units and precedent statements. Having established the paradigmatic relations between the lexical units, the author of this article uses the classification and statistical methods and the method of transformation as the means of systematizing the linguistic material.
