Abstract
This study deals with the classification of Ukrainian rhymes based on visual and phonic signs.
Ukrainian orthography is based on the phonemic principle, taking into account morphological, traditional and differential. It is well adapted to reproduce the consonance of words in a letter, so predominantly the reader does not experience the feeling of splitting the image of the rhyme. Despite the clarity of the concepts ‘visual’ and ‘phonic’, the terms ‘visual rhyme’ and ‘phonic rhyme’ defined in the scientific literature differently.
Our purpose was to study the means of visual representation of rhyming words and analyze the degree of coincidence of the visual images of the rhyme components. Mainly the aesthetic intention is an impulse of employing graphic techniques that estrange visual images of components from each other or bind them on the basis of orthographic deviation. The authors of modern poetry actively apply foreign letter inclusions, rows of dots, figures and other non-alphabetic signs.
Analysed material gave grounds for the rhymes distribution to phonic, formally phonic, phonic-and-visual, visual-and-phonic, formally visual. In phonic rhymes, the relative parts of the rhyming words are not identical in the letter. Formally phonic group includes rhymes with non-literal or foreign-literal components. Phonic-and-visual rhymes takes into account the cases of traditional notation of some letters. The vowels of these rhymes are identical. Visual-and-phonic rhymes expect complete correspondence between the vowels and the letters of the correlative parts of the rhyming words. Formally visual rhymes cover cases of visual identity of correlated parts of the rhyming words and dissimilarity of vowels.
A refined rhyme classification will help to originate a modernized general systematics of Ukrainian rhymes.

Keywords: poetic language, rhyme, graphics, rhyme classification, visual rhyme, sound rhyme.
