Summary
The concept of "gender" is widely considered as a socio-cultural, discursive and psycholinguistic phenomenon. Gender features are considered in combination with status, social group, educational level, situational context and taking into account the changing situation in society. The study of the means of expression of language units, conveying emotions in the speech of women, reveals emotionality, which is manifested at different levels. It is noted the desire of women to use, besides neutral, traditionally "feminine" vocabulary, rich in comparisons, metaphors, ellipses and rhetorical questions. The issue of speech (intonational) competence is determined by comparing female and male readings of the text in the group of the same social status. Educated women are as proficient in intonation norms for reading as men
