The formation and development of various linguistic trends in linguistics at the turn of the 20th and 21st centuries, which are multidisciplinary and integrative in nature, is a feature of modern linguistics. One of the newest areas of linguistics is linguo-gender studies. The purpose of this article is to summarize the achievements of Ukrainian scholars in the field of linguo-gender studies over the period 2015-2023. By conducting an analytical and bibliographical review of scientific publications on linguistic and gender issues, presented in the chronological order of publications, the author highlights various aspects and directions of research, which deepens the understanding of this area of linguistics. The analyzed scientific publications indicate the emergence of new areas of gender research in linguistics, including mechanisms for involving linguo-genderological data in the translation process, gender asymmetry in translation; gender aspects of the information war waged by the Russian Federation against Ukraine and the democratic world; gender manipulations in the translation of international documents on human rights and gender equality. The formation and development of the conceptual apparatus of linguo-genderology is highlighted through the presentation of the practice of compiling dictionaries on gender issues. The analysis of the works of Ukrainian scientists in the field of modern linguistic gender studies has revealed a high intensity of research and a variety of topics of scientific research of domestic scientists. The article emphasizes the connection between linguistic and gender studies and the processes of formation and implementation of the modern gender equality policy of the Ukrainian state aimed at ensuring equal rights and opportunities for women and men.
