Abstract

A comparative analysis of the terms “linguistic personality”, “discursive personality” and “communication personality” is carried out in order to confirm the hypothesis that “ linguistic personality” can be regarded as a hyperonym in relation to the other terms used to describe the phenomenon homo loquens. The term “ linguistic personality” is analysed from the standpoints of linguoculture, linguodidactics, psycholinguistics, and cognitive-discourse. The arguments of the researchers who advocate differentiating the terms “discursive personality” and “communication personality”, as well as “rhetorical personality” and “textual (discourse) personality” are presented. The study concludes that “linguistic personality”, understood as a personality capable of producing and understanding speech in a certain language with regard to personal properties, worldview, circumstances, etc., is an umbrella concept to the terms “discursive personality”, represented as a linguistic personality capable of producing a certain discourse, and “communication personality”, considered as the realisation of linguistic personality in the oral communicative space.
