Abstract: Every text has a communicative purpose that it performs by dividing itself into generic stages. These stages are assigned specific goals and have differing linguistic structures. This paper makes an attempt to investigate whether there is a definable co-relation between linguistic features and stages in the genre of look-good advertisements. It further investigates the role that these linguistic features, particularly the "theme," perform in the fulfillment of the genre purpose. This paper studies how various linguistic features collaborate for advertisements to fulfill their persuasive and informative functions by assigning each stage different roles and different grammatical structures.
