Annotation: This article presents a multilingual analysis of expressiveness in English and Ukrainian, considering their typological, cultural, and communicative characteristics. The study examines the main lexico-semantic, morphological, syntactic, and phonetic-prosodic means through which expressiveness is achieved. Examples of linguistic units are provided to illustrate various mechanisms for conveying emotionality and imagery. The research identifies both shared and distinctive features of expressive expression in the two languages. The findings indicate that English expresses emotion primarily through contextual and logical strategies, while Ukrainian is marked by high emotional intensity, morphological productivity, and intonational expressiveness.
