In this research, the writer uses the qualitative method. The collected data of English slogans advertising from the English newspapers or English magazines are analyzed qualitatively based on related theory or approaches, such as Semantics and stylistics.From 30 kinds of slogan, the writer finds 7 slogans that not contain a figurative language.
