Abstract. The conflict discourse as a communicative event reveals the characteristics of its participants as linguistic personalities. In this respect, this study enables us to reveal and describe their personal and social features. Undoubtedly, the individual characteristics of participants, their cultural and ideological differences and similarities have a great impact on the interaction process in general and on the use of linguistic means in particular. To better understand the nature of conflict discourse, its causes and consequences, one should take into account that adverse behaviour depends on the personality type and the role the speaker plays in different situations. Conflict personality is referred to as an archetype, transcendental phenomenon common to everybody. The research revealed such key characteristics typical of conflict personality as: verbal (use of language units with "conflict" connotation, the "manipulation" of speech means that convey negative, conflict meaning in particular contexts) and non-verbal (communicative aim, communication medium, pre- and post-supposition of the speaker and the listener, mode of behaviour). It also proved that conflict patterns of behavior may lead to confrontation and/or transfer of collaborative interaction into an adverse one.
Key words: linguistic personality, speech personality, conflict, conflict personality, interaction, intention.
