The article deals with the concept of “cultural code”, actual approaches to the classification of the codes within the cultural framework. This work also represents the general typology of cultural codes, which can be considered as verbal or nonverbal. The last includes visual, auditory, tactile, odorous subtypes. The verbal type is qualified through exponential signs of material and nonmaterial (intellectual) items of culture. Taking into consideration differences of the sings which are culturally marked, the linguocodes are divided into 1) national and cultural linguocode; 2) international and cultural linguocode; 3) subcultural linguocode. We also investigate partial branching of the national and cultural linguocode, which includes biotic and abiotic subtypes. The biotic sybtype comprises of anthropic and organic (animal / plant) linguocodes. The abiotic sybtype unites natural and artefactual linguocodes. Food, which is also called glutonic, linguocode belongs to the subtypes of artifactual verbal national and cultural linguocode. The glutonic linguocode together with other codes which are not being discussed in the given research, continues the classification scheme, in particular provides a thematic taxonomy. This code carries the system of conventional signs which have balanced themselves in the language system after approbation in the oral practice of nutrition. The glutonic linguocode provides the connection between the sign and the meaning which promotes the transfer of glutonic nomination (plane of expression) into the area of meaning (plane of content). Key words: cultural code, verbal / nonverbal code, linguocode, national and cultural / international and cultural / subcultural linguocode, biotic / abiotic linguocode, anthropic / organic (plant / animal) linguocode, natural / artefactual linguocode, food (glutonic) linguocode.
