Abstract

This article aims to highlight the analysis of language behaviour and language attitude in the military environment. The data included in this research was taken from the series of books Oral History of the Russian–Ukrainian War (2014–2019), which includes interviews with both military personnel and civilians, namely displaced people from the Donbas region and chaplains. The participants clarify their language choices and explain how it has influenced identity construction, as well as developing their linguistic personality. Since the interviewees are mostly from the south–eastern part of Ukraine, it is possible to make some general conclusions about the language situation of these territories, as well as to investigate language attitudes in the military environment. The analysis is informed by Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) involving the analysis of text, discourse and sociocultural practice.
