Abstract
The article treats the problem of the formal differentiation of a lexico-semantic variations of polysemantic word by means of intonation differences. The analysis of the Russian polysemants allows to define the formal differentiation of LSV as a regular systemic phenomenon, determined by the language position on the scale of lexicality-grammaticality. The extent and depth of dividing a word into grammatical and lexical parts determine the predominant usage of the formal differentiation means. In the unchangeable synsemantic word classes both intonation and stress are used. The stress independence/dependence of the synsemantic parts of speech LSV depends on their functional and syntactic status which is due to their semantic difference.
