Abstract

The article deals with issues related to the features of the functioning and identification of the semantic and pragmatic potential of advertising texts on the example of outdoor advertising. The material of the study was advertising banners selected by continuous sampling from various Internet portals, the content of which is determined by the presence of non-verbal text elements and verbal signs interacting with each other. Outdoor advertising is considered from the point of view of pragmatic potential, the nature of which depends on the choice of language units with a certain denotative and connotative meaning that affects communication strategies. It is shown that when creating an advertising text, the author can use various techniques and methods of influencing the addressee so that the advertising message attracts attention and produces the proper communicative effect (incitement to action). The article considers the advertising text as a semiotically complicated phenomenon, consisting of a set of lexico-semantic means and their relationship with visual elements.
