Abstract
The article investigates the communicative process in the conditions of an interpersonal conflict, which is determined by the mutually influential replicas of opponents, provides a set of markers that represent the emotional and psychological features of individuals. The author recognizes and describes the estimated vocabulary that affects the human emotional state. According to the classification of emotions, their division into positive or negative ones is considered. The method of linguistic expression of emotional evaluation is chosen by its lexical value. The author refers to lexemes, the use of which is in the relation with the opponent that influences the motivational factors to perform certain actions; they also show a negative attitude, perform a psychological pressure, denote a social distance. The lexis of a negative-evaluative character enables the development of conflict situations; it is used to describe personality traits of a man, features of the process of communication and behaviour. In the first place, the author is interested in pejorative whose pragmatic load is manifested in the creation of negative emotional reactions and states. Based on the algorithm of the intensification of the expressiveness of the linguistic units, three groups of conflicting statements are singled out. The first is the statement in which there are tokens that represent the negative evaluation of an opponent in a general explicit manner with absolute expressiveness. Under these conditions, a person experiences protest, aggression, anger, and insult. The second is the statement where we find tokens reflecting the negative evaluation of the interlocutor in a specified explicit way with absolute expressiveness. From fundamental emotions, we recognize aggression, anger, which are accompanied by dissatisfaction which go into protest, hatred, insult and surprise. The third is the statement where the negative estimation of the addressee in the specified implicit (metaphorized, euphemized) method with the relative expressiveness is realized. Fundamental emotions (discontent, protest, aggression, suffering, anger, fear, insult) remain relevant but their manifestation may be slowed down. The proposed differentiation allows the author to draw a conclusion on the conflict-verbal symbolism which determines the emotional and evaluative component of the meaning of the word at the stage of its perception
