Do you think that advertisers have a moral duty to avoid stereotyping people? I think that advertising agencies should consider the possibility of stereotyping in both commercials or print advertisements because there is always the case that I may have a certain impact not always a good way on a certain audience. Advertisements that may contain stereotypes apart of very touchy subject such as racism, sexism could potentially cater to a very sensitive audience and arguments and fights could arise from this. When an advertisement is trying to sell product but in return only offends the customer obviously they company will now have less sales and less customers viewing the ads and products due to the offensive language and actions that may be used. Stereotypes can definitely drive away a huge audience and cause your product to not sell or at least not to a large demographic who finds the ad offensive. A lot of companies really do not realize how much adding small stereotypes into

Presentation Pitch In our oral presentation, we utilized persuasive techniques to pitch the thought to the organization. Since our intended interest group was youngsters we suspected that they are the ones who are most inclined to this interest, and that they just want to be apart of a group which our product could offer. We used a couple of powerful techniques all throughout the presentation to influence the organization into picking us to publicize their item. We used a lot of statistical data points to back up our sales idea as it gave a greater appeal to the organization we wanted to collaborate with, The other method we used to differing ourselves was discussing why we are extraordinary and why our ideas would make great sales. We specified how we are the main organization to have some expertise in natural items. Since we realized that we were contributing to an organization request to publicize their item, we built up that we must be extremely proficient and consc
The ‘Hour choice advertisement displays a young woman sitting on a dirty staircase wearing a wedding dress. She is putting on her black converse, as she looks care free and all happy with life. I mean why wouldn’t she be, its her wedding day. What does the ad reveal about the cultural/ social/ or historical context of its production. In the ad we can clearly distinguish that it is the woman’s wedding day. However the ad does display a sense of irony as the norms of society suggest that you should be dressed and act a certain way on your wedding day. The woman does not have on appropriate wedding shoes or is in a normal suggested wedding environment. This tells us as the viewer that the ad reveals that the society she lives in is very laid back and care free with society not setting standards on everything, especially a wedding. According to the ad, what values or characteristics are the most important? The ad suggests to the viewer to not follow everything society t
The advertisement is aimed to people who have a major interest in soccer. Or may just be the younger generation who may know who this public figure is. In general I would say that the targeted audience would be people with interest in sport or watching sport. Ethos: They are using a very famous public figure, Messi the soccer player for Barcelona. Pathos: Makes you feel as if you'll be strong, refreshed, happy. Logos: Logos has been used where it say “#10 Messi” As the number ten is at the back of Messi’s Barcelona shirt.
In the article ‘Twtr? It's majorly bad! Leading headteacher condemns 'text speak' for eroding schoolchildren's language skills’, Caroline Jordan, head of a top private girls' school in Oxford, warned a generation of children are leaving school without a proper grasp of spelling and grammar because of the impact of so-called textspeak. Is text talk really as bad as this article makes it out to be? Text talk can really be an incredible thing, humans have invented a slang for almost every word to save time typing. However using this language in real life, I would agree is not a good step into the future. However true this may be, the article does ignore a large amount of factors, in conclusion making your article unfair. A lot of things have not been recognized such as the impacts of text talk, the positives. For you as an editor I think its only fair you tell both sides of the story, the people impacted by text talk and the people who use it. Language itself i
Kendrick Lamar interview
Questioner: Thank you for taking a seat with us. You're the reason we needed to turn out to Compton. Kendrick Lamar: I'm happy y'all dropped by here. Simply observing the way of life and the way of life of it and what we're attempting to improve. A ton of these fellows got great hearts. They're just in a situation where it's threatening. Questioner: I turned out over here not knowing a lot about Compton beside what I knew from music. It's underreported. Also, that resemble you folks are providing details regarding the area. Meeting you, that is the main way you become acquainted with an area, by meeting the general population who live there. Kendrick Lamar: Yeah, unquestionably. You know, the greatest misguided judgment is when America takes a gander at these individuals they believe it's all only one identity. In general. It's several identities. Be that as it may, I think generally, you must be in it to comprehend these folks' genuine in
“Language shapes our identity but doesn’t define who we are” This statement has been questioned for hundreds of years. The problem is that there is more to it than only language and thoughts. Culture plays a major role in this. Depending on the people you surround yourself with and interact with, culture, traditions and lifestyle habits are just a few things you can pick up. Language can be expressed in many different ways. It allows us to identify the little things about us. Language does shape our identity, it is a way of expressing the truest version of yourself. However only you have the power to choose whether you will let your language define you and who you are as a person. There are many difficulties people come across when learning language, expecially for foreign speakers. Unlike the English language, foreign languages provide a wider variety of vocabulary to express different ideas. This is explained in the article ‘Why do writers abandon their native language?
To many of us english is not our first language. We all come from different parts of the world and this in return causes us to have different mother-tongues. I attend an international school, filled with culture, tradition, and a variety of languages. I have learned to adapt to different cultures and accept and treat them the same as I would to any human being. In the story “Mother Tongue” Tan discusses the many different stereotypes and daily struggles that a non native english speaker might come across from day to day. Most english speakers have generalized how other accents may sound around the world when trying to speak english, Spanish, French or even Russian. It is more common to hear the words singlish (Singapore English) that a native english speaker trying to speak spanish. Even between the Americans and the British, they both speak english, but does it all sound the same? There is no proper way to speak english, slang to you might be my Shakespeare. The language all
My name is Tiara. A very common word, tiara means crown. Tiara's have been around for many centuries now. The definition of a Tiara is a jeweled ornamental band worn on the front of a womans hair. (A three-tiered crown). The name Tiara, originates from the english language, and is commonly used in english speaking countries. The name was most popular from 1985-early 2000s. I was bron in 1999, and do have a couple friends who do share the same name as me. Although refering to the urban dictionary, someone with the name Tiara is a "f****** goddess and oftenly described as perfect." which I can't really argue with. According to google as Tiara, I am very sensitive, affectionate and imaginative. Overall a very positive person. My luckiest number is 11, which is odd as there is never a day when I would miss 11:11 to make a wish. I am proud to be a Tiara, and I know the name itself has shaped me into the person I am today, maybe without even knowing it.
Christianity is the dominant religion in Germany. About 70 percent of the German population identifying themselves as Christian. Muslims make up 3.7 percent of the population. When people think of Germany they usually think christian, no thought goes to any other religion. This has become a very huge stereotype now a days. When you go to Germany you are surrounded by churches, crosses, people celebrating christmas etc. you never really hear about someone celebrating ramadan or eid not just in Germany but really anywhere in Europe. I am a german and I am muslim. I do not celebrate all muslim celebrations but I do follow some of the major traditions, Not eating pork being the main rule. It is hard to be a german when there are so many stereotypes attached to the name. These stereotypes include eating a lot of meat (pork), drinking beer, celebrating christmas, taking the metro everywhere. I do none of these and yet I am still a german.
