AI overview

Folklore is the collection of stories, sayings, beliefs, and customs that a group of people share and pass along to each other—things like fairy tales, proverbs, jokes, traditional songs, and the ways they celebrate important events. It matters because it captures and preserves the distinctive culture, values, and identity of communities, from the tales they tell to the buildings they construct and the rituals they practice.
