Chalova Larisa Vladimirovna  (Candidate of Psychological Sciences, associate Professor, Northern (Arctic) Federal University named after M.V. Lomonosov)

Linguistics investigates language mechanisms denoting emotions. Their differentiation is observed through their nature or through the development of the outer expression. Positive emotional state appears on the basis of satisfaction from favorite activity, from the joy when the desirable aim is reached. People’s emotions are represented in the fiction much more colorful. Linguistic observation and stylistic analysis of O.
