Abstract: The article is devoted to the verbalization of sacred category in Ukrainian linguistic culture during the Russian — Ukrainian war 2022. The durability of tradition in the presentation of religious meanings and their modernization in modern conditions are shown as a kind of linguistic creativity of Ukrainians in regard to the continuation of the national tradition in the modeling of semantic-pragmatic meanings in the plane sacred-profanne. Attention is drawn to the fact that verbalization of sacred and anti-sacred, as everything in the language system and
speech, demonstrates progress, dynamics, development. The article examines the linguistic manifestations of the processes of sacralization, desacralization, and resacralization as components of the category of sacred. The role of the language game that manifested at different linguistic levels (graphical, word-forming, phraseological) in the desacralization of certain religious concepts is demonstrated. The cultural and worldview conditioning of the sacred is shown, which is realized in the partial desacralization of religious concepts and sacralization of national precedent ones, primarily the Armed Forces. The attention is focused on the appearance of new specific precedent texts, in  which the partial desacralization of important religious concepts is a kind of background for the expression of the sacralization of the Armed Forces and Ukraine, which demonstrates both the durability of tradition and innovation in Ukrainian linguistic culture.

Keywords: sacralization, desacralization, resacralization, precedent, language game
