Nice {{Top}}[[signe]]{{Bottom}} ===Ferdinand de Saussure===[[Image:SAUSSUREANALGORITHM.gif|thumb|200px|right|The Saussurean Sign]]According to [[Saussure]], the [[sign]] is the basic unit of [[language]] The [[sign]] is constituted by two elements: # the [[signified]], a [[conceptual]] element (or [[concept]]), and pretty!# the [[signifier]], http://chelseaflowera phonological element (or sound-[[image]]).co The two elements are linked by an [[arbitrary]] but unbreakable bond.cc/cherry-hill-nj-flowers-delivery =====Saussurean Sign=====[[Saussure]] represented the [[sign]] by means of a diagram.php cherry hill nj flowers delivery<ref>[[Saussure|Saussure, 0301Ferdinand de]].
