V. Read and translate the text The language of advertising
There are some methods that are used in persuasive advertising. Here are some of them:
-
Repetition The simplest kind of advertising. A slogan is repeated so often that we begin to associate a brand name with a particular product or service.
-
Endorsement A popular personality is used in the advertisement.
-
Emotional appeal Advertising often appeals to basics such as mother-love, manliness, feminity.
-
Scientific authority Sometimes the advert shows a person in a white coat (a scientist) telling us about the product. More often it mentions “scientific testing” to persuade people.
-
Comparison The advert lists the qualities of a product in direct comparison with rival products.
-
An appeal to fear or anxiety This type is similar to 3, but works on people’s fears.
-
Association of ideas This is usually visual. Until it became illegal in Britain, cigarette advertising showed attractive, healthy people smoking in beautiful rural situations.
-
Information If a product is new, it may be enough to show it and explain what it does.
-
Special offers/free gifts This is a very simple and direct appeal – it’s half a price!
-
Anti-advertising This is a modern version which appeals to the British sense of humour. It makes fun of the techniques of advertising.
