Folklore

Folklore is stories that have been passed down from generation to generation and are part of a culture or country. Usually, these stories have characters and settings, and often include events that have been made up or exaggerated over time. Folklore can be stories, poems, songs, or games and is often about things like myths, legends, and even everyday happenings. These stories can teach lessons about history, culture, or even provide comedic relief.
