Abstract

The main objective of the study of semiotic theory provides a framework for understanding how humans use signs to make sense of their environment. Semiotic theory holds that signs do not convey meaning that is inherent in the object being represented. Semiotics is a method of studying communication that focuses on all types of communication rather than just spoken or written language. Semiotics, also known as Sign, is any object that can communicate meaning to a sign interpreter. The meaning could be intentional or accidental. The sign may also convey feelings that are reflected on the mind by any of these senses, such as visual, tactile, auditory, imaginary, and others. Signs and sign processes, symbolism, metaphor, indication, designation, and communication are all relevant subjects to explore as well as investigate the systems of nonverbal communication. The logical dimension of visuals as semiotics will be the focus of this paper.
