How can you be so sure that signs and symbols are important in advertisements? Is it a bit pompous to just state your claims without further evidences?

Students like us should be aware to this topic.

For me signs are those that can be identified and understood easily while symbols vary from culture to culture, meaning that a certain symbol means differently in different places.

Apart from symbols and signs, can you give other ways to deconstruct advertisements?

May because people nowadays are not so fond of reading lengthy messages especially when the form of written material is very simple, just like an advertisement. So with the signs and symbols, it helps the advertisement be effective in the way that people will not use large amount of brain cells just to understand what the advertisement says. skl
