Summary/Abstract: This paper is devoted to revealing the axiological specificity of the emotional image of the world, represented by ten fundamental emotions (interest, joy, surprise, embarrassment, disgust, anger, contempt, shame, suffering, and fear) in Ukrainian phraseology. The main methods of research are the method of parametric analysis of the semantic structure of phraseme with the accentuation of the evaluative component and the method of thematic fields. Phrasemes has been classified according to their evaluation load, developed in the framework of axiophraseme pragmatics based on the three-value positive–negative–situational evaluation system and the sequential allocation in the emotional image of the world of positively evaluative, negatively evaluative phrasemes, and phrasemes with diffuse evaluation. Our attention is focused on cinematic phrasemes based on the description of the external expression of emotions in Ukrainian phraseology. Manifestation and intensification are positioned as defining signs of the level of the emotional image of the world.
