Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to analyze the trilingual advertisment of Emirates airlines by three levels of analysis in translatological eco-paradigm presented by Gangshen Hu in (2004/2020). It seeks to investigate how does this company increase the effectiveness and acceptance of its brand in the destination ecosystem by "adapting" and "selecting" the (para/peri)text of its advertisements? It is assumed that, the (para/peri)textual elements accommodated in the content & form of the ad, and also adequate “adaptation” and “selection” of linguistico-cultural ecosystems would maximize the optimal communicative effect on target audience.
The results indicate that the (para/perه)textual elements (color, sound, schema, logo...) in the Emirates advertisements are more prominent than the linguistic aspects. Also, the "cultural dimension" has achieved a higher level of paratextual language by selecting multiple elements, codes and universal symbols (such as rhythm, dance, and physical-sportive movements) and therefore has created a higher impact factor among audiences.
