Discourse of advertisements, especially in printed ads, has shown the development of an extraordinary language phenomenon. A copywriter is able to exploit the language to be used as the media of communicative ads, which is very interesting and persuading. This exploitation of language, especially the mixture of verbal and non-verbal signs, makes discourse of ads an interesting subject to explore and analyze. To study the exploitation of the language in the discourse of ads, there are three main points to learn as proposed by Van Dijk; They are : superstructure, micro structure, and macro structure of the ads.

Advertisement as an advertising media of goods or services should be interesting and persuasive. Now days, the development of advertisement showed the tendency of non-verbal domination upon verbal. Between non-verbal sign and the goods or services that was being advertise, sometimes did not have any relations in meaning and even reflected beyond-reality meaning. This fact, made advertisement an interesting discourse to be studied, especially the meaning and message of an advertisement that is conveyed through the exploitation of non-verbal signs.

In order to revealed the meaning and message of an advertisement that showed by its non-verbal sign, required a semiotics approach. Whereas, regards to the beyond-realistic meaning and message it was required a special approach of hypersemiotics. The result showed that, the meaning and message conveyed by non-verbal sign made the advertisement more persuasive, interesting, and rememberable to the consumer.

Besides language exploitation phenomenon, in an advertisement, the presence of non-verbal elements also indicate the same phenomenon, whereas between non-verbal sign and the products or services that is being advertise sometimes have no relation in meaning at all and even reflect unrealistic meaning. In order to uncover the insight of this non-realistic meaning, it is required a special approach of hyperrealistic meaning theory that is Hypersemiotics.
