signifiant
/ˌsiːnjiːˈfjɒ̃
/noun
Another term for signifier.I have retained the terms 'signified and 'signified' rather than use Harris's translation of signifiant as 'signal' and signifie as 'signification'....
- Something can only be called a sign when it is possible to distinguish in it a signifiant and a signifie.
