These set expressions are used both in oral and written speech and serve for the expression of  the speaker’s intentions depending on the communicative situations.

Structural-semantic features of these units were highlighted, namely the classification of pragmatic idioms according to their structure, parts ofspeech and lexical-semantic groups. In addition, the peculiarities of these units usage in various speech acts such as directives, commissives, assertives, expressives and declaratories were analyzed with the distinction of the contexts specific to each of them. Taking into account these characteristics, the main translation ways quantities of the English pragmatic idioms into the Ukrainian language were determined. The analysis presented in the form of a diagram displays the presence of distinctive features in the usage of these units in the compared languages. The specifics of the pragmatic idioms translation is, above all, determined by the cultural peculiarities and c the difference between the grammatical systems of the English and Ukrainian languages.
