Abstract

According to the Course of General Linguistics, by Ferdinand de Saussure, semiology, which many today prefer to call semiotics, would be the science destined to study the life of signs in society, and would have as an emblematic model the spoken language, since it is considered among the many systems of existing signs as being the most natural and appropriate for such a study because most of its signs were arbitrary and because it was necessarily present in any act of communication.
