The influence of language manipulations and psychological traps on the consumer has been revealed. Advertising of Ukrainian brands of food and beverages has been considered. Conclusions. First, it is substantiated that as of today advertising is a means of manipulating the subconscious of consumers. It is established that television advertising actively implements social values in the mass consciousness and determines models of human behaviour. Second, it is argued that framing allows consumer to choose certain aspects of reality and make them more visible in the communicative process, leading the consumer of this information to a certain interpretation of the phenomenon. Third, it has been found that the linguistic frames in the advertising of the brands and companies such as “Kinder Bueno”, “Khreshchatyk”, “Delicacy”, “Torchin”, “Farm”, “Kinder”, “Lion”, “Jacobs Monarch”, “Neskafe”, “Coca-Cola”, “Sandora”, “Danone”, “Nestle” and others analyzed in this study have a significant impact on consumer behaviour and perception of the situation and information.
