Brief information about events has been enlivened since early times by colloquial speech *). Until now, in the north of Russia, where antiquity is firmly preserved, love can be seen in foreign speeches. Listening to new or Archangel-city speech, you involuntarily notice this incessant: “bn ska, she is ska.” The speech is similar to this: “they say.”

The chronicles of Novgorod or Pskov are distinguished, as is known, by their simplicity and artlessness. They are fresh, folk, original, brief and truthful in the direct transmission of impressions. Therefore, they do not remain for a long time an example of the original, literary form of storytelling. There is no desire in them to dwell on the past, the long past, which already constitutes the highest degree of historical creativity. It is remarkable that the Novgrad-Pskov chronicle, up to the 17th century inclusive, retained its ancient character of laconic, stingy presentation of details, with a compressed and expressive language. The colloquial form is a feature of these chronicles. One of the most ancient stories serves as proof of this: “And you are peasants, but we will make you chop in unison.” Conversational speech often disrupts the flow of a story that has barely begun. The Novgorodians, the chronicler says, having decided to expel Vsevolod, “carried him into the episcopal courtyard with his wife and children... and committed his guilt: 1, not to watch the stink. shot in front of everyone“... A concise story, enlivened by extra speech, testifies to the freshness of the event at the time it is described.

The conversational form and prayerful exclamations and exclamations are the elements with which the New Year’s entry was enlivened.

A story composed after some time, when the chronicler looks back and groups the events of a certain year, should be distinguished from a record or a condensed story written under the immediate impression of an event. This requires the ability to imagine a thread of events and combine them whenever possible.

') Already in the news of Oleg's campaign against the Severians, a colloquial form is found, and it also describes his attitude towards the Radimichs even more fully: “Who do you give tribute to? They decide: Kozar And Oleg says to them: do not give it to Kozar, but give it to me,” etc.
