(Originais Teachy 2023) - Question Medium of Spanish

In the Portuguese Language class, teacher Ana brought several images of traffic signs and monuments, and together with the students, discussed the importance of the colors, shapes, and words contained in them for the communication of messages. During the activity, she explained that Semiotics, a branch of Linguistics, precisely studies how signs function and are interpreted in different contexts. This discipline analyzes the processes of signification and communication through signs, which can be words, images, sounds, gestures, and other elements that have some kind of meaning. Based on this context, how could Semiotics help students understand the importance of words and visual signs in constructing meaning in our daily lives? Consider practical examples of everyday situations where the interpretation of signs is crucial for effective communication.
