Folk tales are rich material in the regulation of social and moral norms, the assessment of the phenomena of the surrounding reality, in the formation of concepts in the human mind. A comparative and typological study of the linguistic content of the tales of different peoples allows us to determine not only their typological universality, but also individualized national-specific, extralinguistic and linguistic factors for individual linguistic cultures. The relevance of the article is that the features of Kazakh fairy tales and the expression of the national mentality in fairy discourse have not yet been sufficiently studied. The article discusses the fabulous discourse in terms of its ethnolinguistic features. A comparative analysis of Kazakh and Russian fairy tales revealed in each ethnic group distinctive features depending on life, culture, religion and mentality. Another fact revealed in the comparative analysis is stylistic features.
