Language is not only a communication tool, but also the most fundamental instrument, which helps us to understand the way of thinking and the perception of the worldview of the societies speaking that language. Although language is a social phenomenon, it also shows an individual character. The individual aspect of the language most often arises during each speaking action of individuals. Spoken language is a type of language that most effectively expresses language differences between the language types. This study aims to discusshow Russian spoken language can be expressed by means of different language tools within the frame of stylistics, how it appears in the language system, and which structural and expressive features it comprises. This study intends to enable those who learn Russian as a foreign language to understand the spoken language well, and to introduce the language tools used in Russian spoken language, to demonstrate how Russian spoken language can be separated from the written language, thus to help them to use the language correctly, and to reveal the structural features of its speech style.
