The purposes of this research are to show the changes in language advertisement and differences in language selection during four decades. The data collected with recording technique are diachronic data taken from 1980s until 2010s by choosing one considered advertisement representing each decade and then tobe analyzed based on sociopragmatics viewpoints. This is to manifest that in performing its functions, an advertisement must concern about the development of the societies as the prevailing agents from time to time. The results of this research show that the language used in Teh Botol Sosro’s advertisements on TV changes in each range of ten years along with the development of Indonesians.
