This document summarizes a research paper analyzing a Coca-Cola print advertisement using Fairclough's 3D model of discourse analysis. The paper examines the language, images, and techniques used in the ad to attract and persuade consumers. It identifies several institutional practices used, such as featuring families and celebrities, using simple language and slogans, colorful logos, and manipulating viewers' psyche. The conclusion states that ads use techniques like jingles and exaggeration to create desirability and motivate purchases.
Referential and attributive uses chapter 3, George YuleMarisol87M
The document discusses reference and inference in language. It explains that referring expressions like proper nouns, noun phrases, and pronouns are used to refer to entities or people. Inference is needed to understand vague expressions. Referring expressions get their meaning from the context and co-text surrounding them. Co-text refers to the words surrounding a referring expression that help identify its referent. Both context and co-text are important for understanding reference.
This document summarizes Ngugi wa Thiong'o's commentary on abolishing the English department at the University of Nairobi. It discusses suggestions to establish a Department of African Literature and Culture instead that places Africa at the center. The current English department framework assumes the centrality of English literature and views other cultures as satellites. However, Ngugi argues for orienting education towards placing Kenya, East Africa, and Africa at the center to understand ourselves, with other cultures considered in relation to understanding Africa better.
The document discusses how media discourse influences people's perceptions and behaviors in several ways:
1. Media discourse, including advertisements, movies, TV shows and cartoons, aims to persuade audiences and shape public opinion.
2. Advertising language uses slogans and positive messaging to promote products and make them memorable.
3. Violent movies and shows can influence young people to copy characters' behaviors. Cartoons also influence children's speech and actions.
4. The media's discourse played a role in influencing Pakistani public opinion against the Taliban in a particular example.
This document discusses formal and contextual links in language. It describes several cohesive devices that create formal links between sentences:
1. Verb form
2. Parallelism
3. Referring expressions
4. Repetition and lexical chains
5. Substitution
6. Ellipsis
7. Conjunction
It provides examples of each device and explains how they suggest connections between sentences. However, the document also notes that formal links alone are not enough to create coherence - contextual understanding is also required. Language must be understood in terms of its intended functions and the cultural norms of communication.
The document provides analysis of the short story "The Man of the Crowd" by Edgar Allan Poe. It discusses the symbolism of the old man who is followed by the narrator, representing a secret side of the narrator. It also examines the characterization of the crowd, narrator, and old man. Finally, it analyzes the changing settings of the story and identifies two themes - mystery surrounding the old man, and the loneliness of the old man as he clings to different groups.

Legal English has several distinguishing characteristics. It uses specialized terminology related to the legal field. It also employs long-winded sentences with complex syntax. Nominalizations are common, where verbs are turned into nouns. The language tends to be formal and impersonal, using the passive voice frequently. Archaic terms, Latin phrases, and formulaic expressions are also utilized.
This document summarizes Ruth Wodak's Discourse Historical Model approach to critical discourse analysis (CDA). It discusses how CDA highlights the relationship between social power relations and discourse. It also notes that CDA is not a single theory but a diverse research program. The Discourse Historical Approach is problem-oriented and interdisciplinary. It integrates historical context and explores how discourse changes over time. According to this approach, language is social and interconnected with power dynamics, ideologies, interactions, and interpretations.
Use of Allegory and Symbolism in Dr. Faustus.AleeenaFarooq
The document discusses the use of allegory and symbolism in Christopher Marlowe's play Doctor Faustus. It provides examples of important allegorical elements in the play, including the Good Angel and Bad Angel representing Faustus' conscience and desires, Helen representing sensual pleasures, and the appearance of the Seven Deadly Sins symbolizing Faustus' surrender to vices. Key symbolic elements are also examined, such as the roles of blood, Mephistophilis representing Faustus' evil nature, and Faustus' rejection of ancient authorities signaling his break from tradition. The summary concisely outlines the main allegorical and symbolic devices used in Marlowe's classic play.
This document discusses linguistic inequality and types of linguistic prejudice. It defines linguistics as the scientific study of language, including language form, meaning, and context. Linguistic inequality refers to differences in a person's ability to use language in different social situations due to lack of exposure or disadvantage. There are three main types of linguistic inequality: subjective inequality, which concerns prejudices about ways of speaking; linguistic inequality, which relates to differences in linguistic items like vocabulary; and communicative inequality, which involves differences in knowledge or skills. The document also discusses two types of linguistic prejudice: cognitive uncertainty, where people make judgments of others based on how they speak, and linguistic insecurity, where some social groups believe they speak poorly. It defines

This document discusses componential analysis and semantic decomposition. Componential analysis involves analyzing linguistic items like word meanings into combinations of defining features that can be used to compare each item. Semantic decomposition believes that word meanings can be built up from simpler words, such as defining "stallion" as a combination of "horse" and "male". Examples are provided for both componential analysis and semantic decomposition.
This document discusses critical discourse analysis (CDA) and the relationship between discourse and power. CDA examines how social power is abused and reproduced through text and talk. The goals of CDA are to understand, expose, and resist social inequalities that are enacted through discourse. CDA takes a multidisciplinary approach and views discourse as inherently part of social structures and power relationships, rather than being value-neutral. It focuses on how discourse confirms, legitimizes, and challenges social relations of power and dominance.
1) Dialogue precedes monologue in language development, as turn-taking and interaction are among the first communicative skills babies develop through conversations with parents.
2) There are two types of discourse: reciprocal, which allows for interaction/feedback, and non-reciprocal, such as a book. Most discourse involves some level of reciprocity.
3) Monologues are often constructed with an imagined receiver in mind, forming a kind of connection to dialogue. Sentences may be adjusted based on assessing the receiver's response.
This document provides an overview of pragmatics and summarizes several key concepts in pragmatics. It begins with defining pragmatics as the systematic study of language use in context. It then distinguishes pragmatics from semantics and discourse analysis. Several pragmatic concepts are then summarized in 1-2 sentences each, including speech act theory, conversational implicature, conversational maxims, politeness, presupposition, deixis, and reference and inference. The document aims to introduce some of the main topics and approaches in the field of pragmatics.
This document defines sociolinguistics and discusses various aspects of language variation. Sociolinguistics is defined as the study of the relationship between language and society. It examines how people vary their language use across different social contexts and how language conveys social meanings. The document also discusses standard and non-standard language varieties, language variation in terms of both users and uses, and other types of language variation including dialect, register, accent, bilingualism/multilingualism, lingua franca, pidgin/creole, and code switching/mixing.
This document discusses the relationship between language, culture, and thought. It makes three key points:
1. Culture can be defined as the knowledge that is learned from other people, either through direct instruction or observation. Since language is learned from others, it is closely connected to culture.
2. Concepts and meanings that underlie language are based on a person's general knowledge and concepts. Understanding language relies on shared knowledge between speakers and listeners.
3. Some concepts and categories may be organized differently in different languages due to cultural differences. While core meanings of words are often shared across languages and cultures, there can be variation, especially in more peripheral concepts. Prototypes provide a framework for analyzing these differences

The power behind images advertisement discourseAzam Almubarki
The document discusses critical discourse analysis and how images are encoded and decoded in advertisements. It analyzes six advertisements - two product ads and four non-product ads - using Fairclough's three dimensional model and Kress and van Leeuwen's grammar of visual design. The analysis finds that most producers try to position the viewer as powerful by giving them the choice, likely to encourage selection. When the producer is the government, they aim to show power over people, implying the powerful should assert authority for obedience.
Ferdinand de Saussure was a notable 20th century Swiss linguist known as the grandfather of modern linguistics. He studied both the historical development of language over time and the notion of the linguistic sign. Saussure's main theory was that all linguistic signs are composed of a signifier, the form the sign takes, and a signified, the concept or idea behind the sign. For a sign to have meaning, it must have both a signifier and a signified. Saussure's work on semiotics, the study of signs and sign systems, has had a major impact on media studies as all media texts contain signs that gain meaning through his theory of the linguistic sign.
This document provides an overview of concepts related to conversation analysis. It discusses terms like interaction, conversation structure, and conversation analysis. Specific concepts covered include pauses and overlaps in conversation, conversational style, adjacency pairs, and preference structure. Adjacency pairs refer to automatic response patterns like greetings. Preference structure divides responses into preferred and dispreferred based on social expectations. Dispreferred responses require more hesitation and account-giving language. Overall, the document analyzes different elements that shape conversations between participants.
The document analyzes an advertisement for Coca Cola using Fairclough's 3D model of discourse analysis. It describes the text of the advertisement which features people enjoying time with family and friends while drinking Coca Cola. It then interprets how the ad uses techniques like an upbeat jingle, colorful imagery and depictions of cultural foods and events to play on people's psyche and manipulate them into wanting the product by fostering feelings of togetherness. The analysis explains how the ad reflects social practices around celebrating with loved ones and soft drinks being part of cultural traditions.
1) Nike has faced issues with cross-cultural communication in their advertisements due to differences in languages, communication styles, colors/symbols, and cultural values between Western cultures and target markets like China.
2) For example, a Nike ad in Kenya mistranslated a slogan, and ads in China depicted traditionally respected figures like elders and dragons in an offensive way.
3) To be successful cross-culturally, the document recommends that Nike conduct deep local research, include target culture members in marketing, and consider cultural values, symbols and communication styles when adapting ads.

Culture is everywhere we look, and (perhaps more importantly) everywhere we don’t look. It informs our work, our purchases, our usage, our expectations, our comfort, and our communications (indeed, if you aren’t familiar with a specific geographic and historical set of experiences, the presumably clever title for this talk will instead be perhaps bland). In this presentation, Steve will explore the ways we can experience, observe, and understand diverse cultures to foster successful collaborations, usable products, and desirable experiences.

Global brands face challenges in expanding to new markets that have different cultures. While products that succeeded in Western markets in the past could sometimes be easily adapted to other countries, today's globalism requires understanding local differences. Companies must ensure their offerings are culturally appropriate for target markets. Both product-focused and culture-focused research are needed to understand consumers, but each has advantages and limitations. Successful companies coordinate globally while allowing local responsiveness in areas like product delivery and marketing.

Running Head: Intercultural Interaction

Intercultural Interaction
Linda Dotson
Walden University
Part 1: Description of the Intercultural Interaction
The intercultural interaction that I engaged in and found it to be annoying was an introduction by my friend to his new Spanish neighbors. This interaction occurred when my friend was walking me home after I had visited him for a discussion. When my friend introduced me to his new neighbor, I was astonished by his method of greeting - the neighbor hugged and kissed me. I reacted to his method of greetings with a sequence of harsh questions as well with some few insults and with an enraged reaction. My assumption was that the neighbor may have taken me to be gay (not that I have anything against gays but I am not one) and hence the kisses. I was infuriated and didn’t give my friend’ neighbor a chance to answer back to the questions I had posed. My friend then cut me short and informed of his neighbor’s greeting culture from where he had come from – Spain. I then took back my statements and apologized to the neighbor.
Part 2: Situation Description using D-I-E Format
Statement of Description
I was introduced to my friend’s neighbor and he greeted me with hugs and kisses.
Statement of Interpretation
My interpretation of the interaction was that the neighbor was gay and by hugging and kissing me he was making a statement of liking me implying that I am also gay as per his interpretation.
Statement of Evaluation
I have no problem with people who choose to be gay as we live in a free country and world where each individual is entitled to their own choices – I included. Since I am not gay, I find it offensive when a person treats me as if I am – as this was my interpretation of the interaction.
The alternative interpretation learned from this activity is that from his neighbor’s culture, people greet each other with hugs and a kiss on the lip. The insight from the interaction and my reaction is that I reacted harshly to an innocent and welcoming gesture.
Part 3: Evaluation using BASIC Dimensions
Types of Communication Behavior
Description
Display of Respect
At first, I showed neither respect nor positive regard towards the neighbor’s greeting culture. After I was informed of the culture, I showed respect by apologizing to the neighbor.
Orientation to knowledge
From my experiences I have known that kisses from the same sex indicate being gay.
Empathy
At first, my reaction did not entail empathy at all. After I was enlightened on the culture, I showed empathy by apologizing for my initial reaction.
Interaction management
In my angered state, I was unable to manage the interaction in terms of turn taking.
Task role behavior
I was unable to initiate a problem solving approach activity- this was done by my friend.
Relational Behavior
I exhibited intrapersonal harmony by having a stand in the way I perceive myself. As per the mediation behavior, I was unable to come with a so.
This document provides an introduction and overview of the concept of brand culture. It discusses how brands are increasingly expressing their cultural aspects to meet consumer needs for meaning and identity. Culture allows brands to construct a cultural environment and grasp existential issues beyond just products. The document also explores how content is a means for brands to illustrate their rich culture, but that the ultimate goal is developing a cultural strategy to provide deeper meaning. It provides context for how the concept of brand culture has emerged and its importance in helping brands maintain relevance in a globalized world where consumers desire uniqueness.

Abstract
This paper analyzes printed Coca-Cola advertisement. The object of the study is Coca-Cola, the
most famous soft drink. Coca-Cola Company has been on the market for 125 years which
indicates it has large experience in business and advertising. Advertising is integral part of
product-selling business because every product needs its buyers. The overall impression of an
advert decides whether a product becomes popular with customers. The primary focus is on the
language but advertising is a complex field therefore all aspects of discourse need to be covered,
namely graphical, features cohesion and sentence types are observed in discourse level.
Pragmatics combines all previous attributes to identify intended message. The aim of the paper is
analyze the institutional practices used by this advertisement.
Key words: discourse analysis, advertising, Coca-Cola, print,
5. Introduction:-
Language is an essential part in human being’s life. Through written either spoken or written
people can communicate with others. Discourse analysis it is necessary to present the term
discourse itself. The knowledge of the meaning of discourse is essential basis for further
analysis. In Widdowson (2007) the term discourse is defined as “what a text producer meant by a
text and what a text means to the receiver”. Discourse could be created not only by written
expressions, but also by verbal ones. This paper focuses on the written and spoken expressions of
advertisement.
Critical Discourse analysis is a general term that stands for several various approaches to
analyze written or spoken language. This definition is general, but it gives a common idea of
fields where discourse analysis can be used.
Advertising has played an important part in the process of creating the world and its culture as
we know it. The development of society and technologies brought along with it an enormous
quantity of options for everyone. Producers need to attract customer’s eye to make them
interested in certain product. For that purpose, advertising with its power is crucial. It is powerful
enough to catch our attention and to create a subconscious picture.
Each area of production focuses on different senses or needs. Food advertising points out taste,
fresh look or the ability to get us closer with people around. When compared to e.g. electronic
devices, food is vital for people. This creates the necessity to buy food and drinks. People buy it
to satisfy their body needs. However, they want to purchase something to indulge in.
The topic of my paper is “Coca Cola”. Discourse of advertisement is primarily fouses on
creativty, attractant as well as persuasive appearance which intended to people to buy their
product. Discourse of advertisement has shown the development of extraordinary language
phenomena. The exploitation of the language to be used as the media of communicative add,
which is very interesting and persuading to manipulate the people.
Hypothesis:-
Discourse of advertisement play with the psyche of audience.
6. Research Objective:-
1. The researcher objective is to analyze the arresting language in the discourse of
advertisement play with the psyche of people.
2. To analyze the persuasive discourse of advertisement help in manipulating people.
Research Questions
1. How is the arresting language in the discourse of advertisement play with the psyche of
people?
2. How persuasive discourse of advertisement help in manipulating people?
Literature Review:-
Critical discourse analysis In recent decades critical discourse analysis (CDA) has become a
well-established field in the social sciences. However, in contrast with some branches of
linguistics, CDA is not a discrete academic discipline with a relatively fixed set of research
methods. Instead, we might best see CDA as a problem-oriented interdisciplinary research
movement, subsuming a variety of approaches, each with different theoretical models, research
methods and agenda what unites them is a shared interest in the semiotic dimensions of power,
injustice, abuse, and political-economic or cultural change in society. CDA is distinctive in a)
its view of the relationship between language and society, and its critical approach to
methodology. Let us take these in turn by first exploring the notions of ‘discourse’ and
‘critical’. The term ‘discourse’ is used in various ways across the social sciences and within the
field of CDA.

culture, events, and traditional food. He loves to celebrate them and try to make them more
special for their family, friends, and relatives. As you know that whenever someone visits their
families, and friends. We serve them with different soft drinks with the combination of hot and
spicy food. In culture we love soft drinks with the combination of spicy traditional dishes on
different occasion. On special events like Eid, Wedding and Birthday parties we make
Barbecue, Biryani, kabab, takka boti, etc and enjoy with different soft drinks.

people and encourage them to buy their products or services. In short we can say that their
purpose is to create desirability in their audience for the purpose of selling their products or
services.

of the advertisements are simple, direct yet strong. They are powerful because they make people
think that the products will make them happier. With the ideology of happiness in which that all
