Abstract

The reaction to the news of Russian invasion of Ukraine is expressed in the Arab world through various communicative means, including Internet memes. Language of social media is utilised to convey the non-official public opinion, both explicitly and implicitly. This paper deals with a complex study of the Arabic humorous discourse, in particular Ukraine war memes, involving their linguistic, sociolinguistic, and pragmatic peculiarities. The research is based on the works of R. Bassiouney [1], M. Bulatovic [2], M. R. Enverga [3], and others. Arabic narratives about the Russian war against Ukraine on social networks have been outlined in the Ukrainian mass media [4]. However, a more in-depth linguistic analysis is necessary to examine the language as a tool affecting the public opinion online.
