1. Introduction
With the development of the world economy and the expansion of the process of economic globalization, people’s daily life has had a close connection with advertisements, making advertising language popularized constantly. At the same time, as a fine publicity stunt, advertisement has been an important part of modern life and has a strong influence on people’s life, promoting the harmonious development of society. Advertisements can be seen everywhere in our daily life, on television, on the internet, on the bus and in newspapers. The audient takes cognizance of different kinds of products and some audient is encouraged to buy products in the advertisement. Of course, the advertising language is simple, short, vivid, unique and humorous. So the audient’s attention can be attracted and consequently have the impulse to purchase what is advertised. Although there are more and more different types of advertisements and the effects of advertisements depend on different factors such as language, picture, color, sound and so on, language is always the most basic factor, which involves the purposeful design and arrangement of vocabulary and phrasal expressions.
