1. Introduction
In modern society, advertising has become an important part of our daily life. The severe competition between thousands of companies and the quick development of international exchanges creates a growing need for advertising and advertising translation. As a result, the cross-cultural advertising translation becomes a hot topic in the field of translation because it has a great impact on the international business and product selling.
The pun is one of the most common rhetorical devices used in advertisement. But the translation of the pun is difficult because of the double meanings, and the translation of the pun in advertisements is even more difficult because one must keep both the double meanings of the pun and the pragmatic functions of the advertisement in mind. However, there is no source text that is absolutely untranslatable. We should try to adopt different strategies to turn untranslatability into translatability. All in all, it is apparent that we can translate English pun to Chinese.
