With appealing dictions, succinct sentence structures, rich connotation and varied use of rhetoric devices, advertisements surprisingly give full play to the charm of language, using the simplest language to express the most complex meanings. Advertisements aim to stimulate people’s desire for shopping. Therefore, manufacturers wrack their brains to be creative with the use of rich puns. The artful use of such rhetorical devices makes advertisements connotative, humorous, vivid and witty—impressive in a roundabout way. Thus pun becomes widely and frequently used to achieve purposed effects of advertisements. This article aims to elaborate on the various forms of puns such as homophonic pun, paronomasia, antalaclasis and syllepsis, and to probe into some common techniques of translating English puns in advertisements such as fit translation, semantic translation, sets translation, priority translation, and compensation translation.
