Summary/Abstract: Formulaity widely understood represents the basis for spatial and temporal transfer of oral tradition. We can find it in fairy-tales, as well, which in distincction from the other kinds of oral prose, have the firmest composition. And exactly, having examples of formulae in individual fairy-tales, one can discover the ability of the story-teller, who limited by the tradition which shapes the pattern and so determines the choice, still succeeds to express his own talent and creativity. As a model one can make use of fairy-tales from the manuscript collection of oral-literarure kinds of prose of a teacher, ethnographer and writer for children, Hamdija Mulić, that originated during his teaching profession in Hrasnica at the beginning of 20th century.
