NATIONAL STEREOTYPES OF RUSSIAN ADVERTISING TEXTS

Abstract

The article describes national stereotypes of the Russian-language advertising text, which are considered as a manifestation of the national-linguistic picture of the world of the Russian people and are studied against the background of Chinese-language and Western advertising. Linguoculturological approach is employed in the article. According to this approach, the national picture of the world determines linguistic and extralinguistic rules for organizing an utterance in a particular national language. To the greatest extent, the linguocultural component is presented in the advertising discourse, which reflects ideas about the surrounding reality, the axiological preferences of native speakers in both social and commercial advertising. Recently, the number of advertising texts in Russian including national and cultural connotations has been increasing. As a result of the analysis of Russian-language commercial advertising, the authors come to the conclusion that the key to successful advertising communication is the orientation of the advertising text, which always contains culturally significant information, at a specific linguistic community with its inherent national-linguistic picture of the world.
