Summary/Abstract: The author of the paper examines different lexical units in the Slovak and Ukrainian languages. The basis of her research is provided by a Ukrainian-Slovak dictionary and a Slovak- Ukrainian dictionary in the compilation of which the author participated. Differences between the semantic structures of the two languages with such a close genetic relationship reflect differences in the perception of reality and its evaluation captured by the semantics of lexemes of the compared languages.
