    Abstract Advertising English is characterized by its originality, flexibility and the persity of the forms. In addition to the features of the lexical and syntactic levels, figure of speech, as a kind of linguistic device, is frequently employed in English advertisement. English pun, with its wide use in various literary works, such as poetry, novels, stories, advertisements and riddles, is a category of importance in figure of speech. It expresses humor and wit in a simple way, in that advertisers prefer to use them in their works. Puns with the feature of vividness and interest make the advertising language concise, rich, humorous and attractive. Appropriate use of puns in advertisement can make a remarkable contribution to its influence on its audiences. Based on existing research in this field, the author starts from the pragmatic function to analyze the translation of puns, in hopes to find some strategies for translating puns in advertisement.  It is hoped that this study can not only help enrich the theory of pragmatic function in general, but also provide some enlightenment to the readers who want to seek further study on the translation of pun in practice.

    1. Introduction 

         With the development of “Advertising culture”, advertisement translation is an increasing important role in the international marketing. It is the ultimate purpose of all commercial advertisements to persuade the target audience into buying products. Scholars have been engaged in the research of English advertisement over the years, owning to various purposes, they do their best to study it from different angles.

         Pun is sometimes explained as a play on words. It is a commonly used figure that sets up thought associations. A pun is rather a play on the word and meaning of words. It relies heavily on metaphorical or figurative meaning of words for its effect (范家材,1890: 67). M. Holz emphasizes the need for the translation should be fit to the target knowledge, cultural experience and lifestyle, which are as important as appropriate (source and target) language competence for the production of a successful advertisement (Holz. M, 1984: 780).
