The article deals with the study of traditional linguistic formulas in the folk tales of Russkoye Ustye and the value-semantic space inherent in the Russian old residents' subdialects of Yakutia testifying to the figurative-speech stereotypes of linguistic culture. Presumably, since the beginning of the 17th century, Russian old residents have been compactly living in a foreign-language environment in the Arctic territory of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), the largest federal subject of the Russian Federation. The old residents are the oldest group of the Russian people in Siberia. The research is carried out based on folklore and dialectal linguistic material collected from representatives of the ethnos and reflected in the collection "Folklore of Russkoye Ustye". In the semantics of traditional linguistic formulas used in folk tales that have their original and individual form compared to other Siberian folk tales, there is a close connection between the lexical meaning and the specific realities of the life of Russian old residents in Yakutia.
