Abstract: Advertisement translation has played an important role in the international marketing. At the same time, frequent foreign trade demands the further accuracy and quality of the advertisement translation. Therefore, many language researchers have paid much attention to it. The thesis will classify two types of pragmatic failures in advertisement translation---pragmalinguistic failure and sociolinguistic failure. Then causes that lead to the failure with examples will be analyzed. Based on the analysis, some strategies to avoid pragmatic failures in advertisement translation will be put forward: being loyal to the original meaning of advertisements, adapting to the expressive habit of target language and being familiar with foreign cultures.
Key Words: advertisement translation; pragmatic failure; strategy
