Summary/Abstract: This article is based on a dissertation called Polish language in the area of Krasnoyarsk, that is currently being prepared. It makes an attempt to juxtapose the examined language with a particular dialectal area of Poland, due to the fact that the set of preserved dialectal features of the investigated language allows to identify it with the Masovian dialectal region. The beginning of the article considers the following: the hitherto status of the Polish language research on Siberia, the history of former Polish descendants’s settlement in the area of Krasnoyarsk, linguistic and extralinguistics conditions surrounding preserved Polish language and the interferential aspect connected with it. The methodology of elaborating on the material is presented in theory. Afterwards, some phonetic features that appear in the examined language indicating its Masovian roots are metioned. The method of working on the material is presented using the example of one of the features mentioned.
