Vocabulary learning through TV Ads and Advertising

TV Ads and other type of advertising is one effective and interesting way of learning vocabulary.

   

This TV commercial helps us understand some interesting English adjectives. These adjectives seem to describe the people being shown and the taste of the corn chips, called Doritos.

spicy: the chips are spicy, the woman is also "hot" or "attractive".
cheesy: the chips are cheese flavored. The man is "cheesy" because he is a little bit foolish!
crunchy: the chips make a "crunch" sound when you eat them. Or when your head hits the windshield of your car!
bold: again, a bold taste with a bold woman.
smooth? is the taste smooth? Is the woman smooth? Well, maybe not!
