Abstract
With the world economic globalization, advertising is exerting great influence on every aspect of social life. Advertising has become a popular subject of study, approached from a wide range of disciplines. Ever since Geoffrey Leech(1983) pioneered the linguistic analysis of advertising language, it has been well addressed from the perspectives of sociolinguistics, cross-cultural studies, stylistics and pragmatics, etc. However, it is found that few efforts have been spread on the systematic analysis between advertising language and the Politeness Principle, which have proved to be of great influence in the development of pragmatics.
This paper attempts to explore the application of Politeness Principle in English advertising language. The Politeness Principle is applied to the English advertising language, which lays great impact on the persuasiveness of advertising. The advertisement usually observes the Politeness Principle to persuade the customers to purchase products.
