This article explores the linguistic features of economic information and its influence on consumer behavior. Economic texts play a vital role in informing and shaping the perceptions of consumers in both national and international markets.

The study analyzes the key language structures, terminologies, and discourse strategies that contribute to effective economic messaging.
