  Abstract:  The present paper proposes, on the basis of several literary texts, the defining features of oral poetic diction in Gogol’s first volume of tales. In defining the oral diction of the Evenings, we have taken into consideration the main linguistic means which, summed up, impress upon the tales their national-poetic character. The analysis of the spoken language in the case of Gogol’s characters, as well as of the style of the entire collection, occupies a significant place in our approach, and the mixture of Ukrainian in the linguistic texture represents an integral part of the narrator’s character. Regarding the approach to the folklore elements, to tradition, the collection discussed in this paper can be inscribed in the category of popular Romantic literature, aspiring towards democratization
