The article is devoted to the characteristic features of the lexical units of the modern Ukrainian language, which ensure the compilation of normative texts of current national legislation. Given the openness of the legal language, the legal text as an expression of legal opinion is always under the influence of current social reality. Therefore, the content of normative legal acts meets the most important needs of today. Since normative documents undergo corresponding changes under the influence of significant social transformations, the issue of studying legal language (its composition and features) remains important among other areas of modern linguistic science. It is foun&d that today in Ukraine, changes in legislation as one of the communicative and functional branches of the language of law have affected various areas of legal language creation, including the direction that describes anti-corruption activities. It i&s determined that the language of law as a kind of system is characterized by specific features and a certain language arsenal of means. The attention is focused on the fact that each area of legislation uses the corresponding lexical composition. Th&is also applies to legislation describing the fight against corruption and corruption-related crimes. It is indicated that, since the lexeme "corruption" and its derivatives describe the standards enshrined in the text of the document, the proposed s&tudy presents the lexical compatibility of the units under consideration. A quantitative and qualitative analysis of the lexical units "corruption", "corruptive", "anti-corruption" was carried out on the material of the Law of Ukraine "On Prevention &of Corruption": their usage in the legal text was determined, the specifics of their functioning were revealed, the relevant phrases were singled out, the components of which are the analyzed lexemes, their role in the researched regulatory act of an&ti-corruption legislation isoutlined. It was established that the analyzed lexemes often belong to the names of sections and articles of the regulatory document; also rare cases indicate that the units "corruption", "corruptive", "anti-corruption" ar&e elements of stable terminological compounds. In addition, the existing variability of word combinations with used verbal signs was recorded.
