##article.abstract##
We aim to define the aphorism and the aphoristic style of communication. We will bring arguments in favor of the thesis that a fifth function of the language, the aphoristic function, can be placed on top of the other four functions (expressive, communicative, descriptive and argumentative). The characteristics of the aphoristic function (memorability, concision and ambiguity) are directly linked to those of the aphorism and the aphoristic style of expression.
