Abstract. This article describes the specific features of the dysphemisms used in the artistic discourse. We examined the history of the study of the concept of discourse, disassembled the differences between the concepts of "discourse" and "text," and also identified key features of the artistic text. The term "dysfemism" is defined in the work and its differences from vulgarisms and explicit language are singled out. We have established a special role of the dysphemisms in the framework of artistic discourse. Within the framework of artistic discourse, dysfemisms have a specific goal: to demonstrate to the recipient the emotional state of the hero and his attitude to a particular phenomenon. From this perspective, we examined the different types of dysfemisms used in artistic discourse and selected examples from English fiction prose.
Keywords: Artistic discourse; Artistic text; Dysphemism; Euphemism.
