On the basis of the derived guess, the peculiarities of the translation from Russian into the Yakut language have been found out. A characteristic feature of the free translation of A.E. Kulakovsky is nationalization as a translation principle of the interpretation of the text of the original. Therefore, this translation, as the first experience of acquainting the Yakut reader with Russian classical poetry, is manifested in the transposition of the substantive aspects of the original and the transfer of the Demon's image in accordance with the forms and pictorial means, traditional for folklore poetry.
