摘 要:广告英语作为一种应用语言，它有着自己独特的语言风格和特点。广告英语用词优美独到，内涵丰富。英语双关语是一种表现力极强的修辞手段，因而在广告中得到了广泛的应用。近年来，对广告双关语的研究大多是针对其结构形式、语用功能和认知功能的讨论。巧妙的双关能使语言含蓄、幽默、生动、机智，起到旁敲侧击，借题发挥的作用，能够很好地突出广告的特点，因此，广告制作者们挖空心思地追求新的创意，使得双关语在广告中的运用技巧更加纷繁复杂。这样使得对英语广告双关语的翻译显得更加棘手了，译者必须在兼顾双关语的双重意思的同时，还要再认真考虑广告语言的特色。本文从谐音双关，语义双关两个最常见的方面对双关语在英语广告中的运用作了阐述；同时也从分别表义法，套译法，侧重译法和补偿译法等几种翻译方法对英语广告双关语作了些探讨。希望能借助本文帮助人们更好地理解英语广告双关语的运用和翻译，以满足各自的商业需求或达到商业目的。
