Orewell's novel "1984", whereas "unspeak" is a new unfamiliar term coined by S. Poole. The current interest in the mentioned linguistic units lies in the fact that both are considered to be euphemisms. From the very start, the article outlines the origin of the phenomenon "doublespeak" as well as its fields of application. According to W. Lutz, "dou  .Лингвистические науки blespeak" can be divided into the following 4 groups: 1) euphemism; 2) jargon; 3) gobbledygook or bureaucratese; 4) inflated language.
