Therefore, this paper discusses the linguistic features, advertisement invention, semiotic aspects, and social contexts. However, the result of the research shows that, the language used in Oreo Wonderfilled advertisement has relation to power. Thus, the advertisement of Oreo does not only attract consumer but also shape the costumers’ mind through the language used both its’ audio or visual.
