IMPORTANT
English is spoken all across the world. It’s the official language for 74 different countries. It’s the native language for over 380 million people. But that’s not all –more than a billion people are proficient (have a good grasp of the language) or fluent in English.
The Dutch language has adopted a number of English words and phrases. Think of the word cool – this word is used in the Netherlands and in a number of other countries. American pop culture has led to the popularisation and globalisation of the English language. For instance, commercials for international products frequently feature the English language. For example, ‘Just do it’ (Nike), ‘I’m Lovin’ It’ (McDonald’s) and ‘Because you’re worth it’ (L’Oreal).
In addition, English is used to talk about sports, such as: wetsuit, penalty, snowboarding, fakie and ollie. These terms are often used instead of the translations. Sometimes, there isn’t even a translation for these words at all!

The best advertising slogans
The secret to a winning advertising campaign often lies within a great slogan.
1. McDonalds – ‘I’m Lovin’ It’
The ‘I’m Lovin’ It’ slogan is one of McDonalds’ most popular advertising slogans. It suits the company’s values and it’s a slogan that sticks in peoples’ minds.
2. Apple – ‘Think Different’
Apple is known for coming up with new and exciting ideas. That’s why the ‘Think Different’ slogan is so effective. It tells customers that they are purchasing a modern lifestyle and they’re at the forefront of technology.
3. Red Bull – ‘It Gives You Wings!’
Red Bull has used ‘It Gives You Wings’ as its slogan for many years. The advert has worked – and lasted so long – because it’s clever. It tells the customer that they will get a first-rate energy boost when they drink Red Bull. The slogan is an example of marketing at its best.
4. KFC – ‘Finger Lickin’ Good’
Much like McDonalds, KFC’s long-standing advert slogan reflects the company’s values. The ‘Finger Lickin’ Good’ slogan tells the customer that KFC chicken tastes great. After all, great tasting food is exactly what you want from a fast-food restaurant.
5. Subway – ‘Eat Fresh’
Subway has a very clever advertising campaign. They have always tried to position themselves as the ‘healthier’ fast-food option. The ‘Eat Fresh’ slogan tells the customers that their sandwiches –and all of the fillings – are always fresh and prepared with care. The ‘Eat Fresh’ slogan, along with their choice of yellow and green branding, has led to their success.
Name another example of an English slogan. Why do you think this slogan wasn’t translated into Dutch? i
Why is ‘I’m Lovin’ It’ such a successful slogan? t1
What is Subway trying to tell their customers with their slogan? t1
The text says that the Subway logo colours have helped the Subway image. Why is that? i
What does the Red Bull slogan promise you ? What does this promise mean? t2
Why is KFC’s ‘Finger lickin’ good’ slogan a good slogan? t2
True or false. Write the answers to these phrases in your notebook. t2
1. Apple is famous for its innovative ideas.
2. Red Bull’s slogan was recently changed.
3. KFC is a fast-food restaurant.
4. McDonald’s slogan tells their customers that they serve healthy food.
5. According to the text, Apple and Subway have the best slogans.
Below you’ll see a number of Dutch products. Write an effective English slogan for each object. i 11

You’ve been asked to write a brand new slogan for one the companies mentioned in the text above. You will do this by following the steps below. i
