Domestic and foreign scholars pay attention to the coded expression of advertising content, because advertising is a message from a combination of speech codes and other semiotic systems. The research in this area has to date, because most modern scholars explore the lingvosemiotiсs only of print advertising. TV advertising remains outside of their attention, because there are the most complex semiotic phenomenon.

This we see in commercials. But the basis for the our lingvosemiotic analysis was the classification by the Russian scientist V. Stepanov, in which seven types of codes is presented. We also found in commercial television advertising, seven types of codes and their respective representative examples of both verbal and non-verbal nature.
