The paper deals with analysis of frequency lists, compiled on the basis of speech tran- scripts of one informant's audio recordings from the ORD Speech corpus. Study material consists of 5 episodes in which the informant acts in social roles, opposing each other on the principle of asymmetric social relations: the men's role as a husband when communi- cating with his wife and when communicating with clients, identified in the ORD Speech corpus as a service. The subject of the study are the most commonly used units from the upper band of the frequency list. They can be interpreted as linguistic correlates of the speaker`s social role due to their specificity, but the special subcode, which they create, is described in linguistics only in the theoretical aspect. In this case, the situation of for- mal communication turns out to be marked. Further analysis of the extracted units will allow to determine what is the significance of the social role in communication and what is the position of the communicative situation when code-switching behavior.
