The article is devoted to the lexico-semantic analysis of the English emotive lexemes (EL) which are the translation equivalents (TE) of the Russian emotive lexemes used in the five plays by A. P. Chekhov (five-six translations of each of the plays are under examination). To provide comparative analysis the researcher applies to the English translations of A. P.
