Abstract
The Russo–Ukrainian war has profoundly transformed the public visual space of Ukrainian settlements. Since the full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, linguistic landscapes have become important sites of political communication, national resistance, collective mourning, and identity construction. This paper examines the main effects of the war on the linguistic landscape of Ukrainian settlements, with particular attention to the increased visibility of the Ukrainian language, the spread of patriotic and military discourse, the commemoration of fallen soldiers, and the emergence of new visual and multilingual practices connected to humanitarian aid, displacement, and international solidarity. The study argues that the war has turned linguistic landscapes into visible arenas of wartime identity, memory, and geopolitical orientation.
