ranged according to subject-matters into sections, each bringing an
appropriate name (e. g. BIRTHS, MARRIAGES, IN MEMORIAM, etc.).
This classified arrangement has resulted in a number of stereotyped
patterns regularly employed in newspaper advertising, of which read
in the chart below:
Function Features
informing reader
mostly neutral vocabulary with rare usage of
emotionally coloured words or phrases used with
the only purpose of attracting readers' attention
fixed, often elliptical, pattern
telegram-like statements, with articles and punc-
tuation marks omitted
As for the separate (non-classified) advertisements and an-
nouncements, the variety of language form and subject-matter is so
great that hardly any essential features common to all may be pointed
out. The reader's attention is attracted by every possible means: typo-
graphical, graphical and stylistic, both lexical and syntactical. There
is no call for brevity, as the advertiser can buy as much space as his
bank account allows.
