摘要：广告，作为文化的产物，充分体现了语言与文化之间的关系。而语言作为文化的重要组成部分，是文化的载体和表达形式。同时，广告作为一种特殊的艺术形式，有其深远的文化背景并受当下多种因素的影响。虽已形成其独特的文体形式，但广告语言仍是一个难题，它不仅需要体现语言的语义对等，同时也要体现在文化与交流功能的对等上。由于中西方文化的差异，广告英语的翻译更面临语言、传统习惯、教育、宗教、经济状况等差异问题。因此，本文旨在以中西方文化差异方面来研究其广告的翻译，探索两种文化在交流过程中出现的文化缺失、信息产生过程中交流的失误以及出现这种失误的原因，并且分析了中西方文化下的广告特点。通过研究广告英语的翻译来理解中西方文化的不同，针对其不同的价值观、社会形态以及历史背景，提出了跨文化交际下广告翻译的主要原则及其翻译策略，实现中西文化交流差异最小化，既而提高本土消费者满意度，助其在国际市场上占据一席之地，为推动我国的知名品牌走向世界打下夯实基础，从而实现真正的跨文化交际，最终达到广告的预期目标。
