Este libro, titulado 'Refranyer català comentat', es una recopilación comentada de refranes catalanes. Publicado en 1990, ofrece una visión de la cultura catalana a través de su sabiduría popular. El autor, Joan Amades, presenta una obra que explora el significado y el contexto de estos dichos tradicionales.

Joan Amades i Gelats was a Catalan ethnologist and folklorist. An autodidact, he worked at the historical archive of the city of Barcelona and at the Museum of Industry and Popular Arts of the same city. From 1956 onwards, he collaborated with UNESCO. He was also an important promoter of Esperanto and founded the Federació Esperantista Catalana. Perhaps the most important book in his large bibliography is Costumari Català, the main work for the study of Catalan popular culture.
