The article is devoted to the issue of categorical features of various types of discourse, definition of their linguistic specificity as well as connection between their verbal means and the conceptual world picture. Purpose. The paper identifies grammatical constructions being typical for literary discourse, particularly, for its Latin American version as a peculiar national form of communication. Methods and methodology. To achieve the objectives, the following methods were used: discourse analysis based on the interpretation of grammatical, prosodic and contextual parameters of fiction, and comparative method. Results. The analysis of Latin American literature allowed defining the two-component system of grammatical units. It includes items with rhythmic and structural similarity, as well as items with syntactic and prosodic inversion. The classification of grammatical unites, which implement a discourse function, was submitted. Applications.
