Abstract. The article is devoted to analyzing speech behaviour of French pr?cieuses of the middle of the XVII century represented by the writers of that time. J.-B. Moli?re’s play "Les Pr?cieuses ridicules" (The Ridiculous Pr?cieuses), C. Saumaise’s works contain the set of expressions which were used in the grand salons and among the pr?cieuses - Madame de Rambouillet and Mademoiselle de Scud?ry. The analysis of these expressions allows the author to conclude that the peculiarities of education acquired by these women predetermined the tendency to make up periphrases structured according to metaphor principles developed by Aristotle in his "Poetics".
