N2 - The article is dedicated to the results of a research project describing the classes and functioning of multiword units in contemporary Russian every-day speech. The concept of multiword units encompasses quite diverse lin-guistic phenomena, making the creation of a working typology one of the project's central tasks. This typology is necessary for annotating corpus mate-rial and obtaining statistical characteristics. The identified classes of multi-word units include the following units: 1) non-phraseologized collocations, 2) phraseologized collocations, 3) occasional collocations, 4) idiom forms, 5) constructions, 6) precedent texts and their elements, 7) multi-word pragmatic markers, and 8) speech formulas. The article describes the methods for an-notating these units using the ORD corpus of everyday spoken Russian and presents the results of a quantitative analysis of their functioning within the annotated subcorpus. The obtained data can be used to address both theoret-ical tasks in the field of lexical and grammatical description of Russian eve-ryday speech and numerous tasks related to processing or generating live spoken Russian.
