Semiotics

Roland Barthes said that verbal language is just one way to communicate, he said that alot of thigs can communicate through meanings.
There are three stages to every sign:-
The Signifier- The physical form of the sign e.g A red rose
The Signified- The consept or idea that the signifier produces e.g A red rose= Love or passion
The Referent- The real message e.g A man giving a girl a rose= I love you
