Abstract. The article considers verbs and verbal phrases as representative means of communiсative-tactile behavior in author's remarks in dramatic texts via perspective of interactional lingua-semiotics. It displays dialogue interactions in the drama as a system of verbal and nonverbal cues in human interaction. The author's remarks in dramatic texts written in the German language are proved to be a reflection of the communicative-tactile behavior of characters thus becoming a constituent part of artistic dialogue interactions. The analysis of the language material proves that a touching channel is being mostly represented in the remarks of the dramatic text, and they allow the author to characterize actions and states of the characters. The concept "touch" is represented through verbal means, which are being classified from the standpoint of the theory of field structure. The verbs with the primary dictionary meaning that points to any kind of touching and sensing activity and preserves a somatic constituent are attributed to the actual kernel. The co-nuclear area consists of the verbs which nominate touching with their secondary dictionary meaning. The near periphery zone is formed of verbs of general perception, they are normally used to convey the perceptive states of characters. The far periphery zone includes verbs of other lexical-semantic groups, which obtain the meaning associated with the touching activity in the micro-context of remarks in the text of drama.

Key words: interactional linguo-semiotics, dramatic text, author's remark, dialogue, dialogue interaction, interactant, communicative-tactile behavior, touching means of intercourse.
