Abstract
The article examines the current state of the Bashkir folk takmaks. The specificity of this genre as a fact of folklore dynamics is revealed: takmaks occupy a stable position and successfully evolve. Thanks to various competitions of takmak performers held in the republic, in addition to the previously existing ones, more and more new couplets are being composed. They are distinguished by an extraordinary breadth of topics, a direct orientation towards a real-life situation and a fundamentally evaluative nature of the content. In the light of recent events, new takmaks are being written on the topic of a pandemic, covid-19, self-isolation, distance learning for children, etc. If earlier takmaks were created and performed mainly by young people, now the bearers of the genre are elderly and middle-aged people. In the post-folklore space, takmaks exist and are distributed not only orally, but also in writing, in the dissemination of which folklore ensembles and amateur groups play an important role. Placing the texts of traditional takmaks on the Internet is also a process not only of archiving, but also of being and popularization with the help of Internet technologies.
