Abstract
The purpose of the article is to scrutinize the concept of HAPPINESS: its representation and partial systematization of the revealed manifestations in a multilingual aspect. In the study of both – the given linguistic unit and its general cultural phenomenon, fundamental conceptual approaches dominate. The theoretical and methodological basis of our research has been compiled on the scientific works of O.Vorobyova, S. Zhabotynska, A. Prykhodko and others. The relevance of the work is supported by the fact that the concept of HAPPINESS is still in the process of an institutional conceptual nature forming, due to the fact that in various scientific disciplines and approaches there is a tendency to replace it with more holistic theoretical constructs, such as “psychological well-being”, “harmony”, “success”, and others.The article summarizes main features and highlights various aspects of the named concept in its general philosophical interpretation, including the objective state of a person, embodied in success or achievement in a certain field of activity; an internal psychological statein which a person feels satisfaction from the realization of a certain intention; possession of the best goods of life, and the moral reaction of an individual who has these goods and which is expressed in a certain contentment with life in general.According to the results of the research, it can be concluded that the features and characteristics of the concept of HAPPINESS in Ukrainian, English and French languages are universal in the multilingual picture of the world; however, happiness can be differently reflected in individual language pictures.
