Annotation:  The paper describes the category of «linguistic identity» in modern linguistic studies, both in Russia and abroad.

Universal and national-cultural ways of verbalization of linguistic identity relate to a certain type of categorization of reality. Prospects of research methods verbalization linguistic identity are seen as part of a comprehensive analysis of communicative behavior, based on a multidisciplinary approach. Using this technique, it is possible to provide additional parameters of the language person of this type. The elements of institutional linguistic identity are considered.
