1 Introduction
Traditionally, linguistics emphasized that language should be precise and clear, and it also argued that the accuracy of language is the basis of expression. In 1965, Professor L. A. Zahel, the control theorist of the United States, published his paper "fuzzy sets", which launched a new trend in academy. Since then the fuzzy language gradually became known to people. With the rapid development of world economy and globalization, advertising has played an increasingly important role in promoting sales and building images. The fuzzy language, with its unique characteristics, plays a positive role in English advertisements.
Based on the thorough analysis of a large number of English advertisements and the results of previous studies, this thesis will make a tentative analysis on the application of fuzzy language. The author of this thesis hopes to make people equipped with a better understanding of fuzzy language so as to prepare them for the production of more successful advertisements, then arousing consumers' interest, stimulating consumers' needs of consumption, and encouraging people to make purchase in products.
