The final Bongard problem at the end of the last post was an example of the way that habitual social conventions govern our filtering of a chaotic world into a meaningful space (umwelt). It is only through our learned reading experience of the letters A and B that we can readily determine the difference between the two groups. Analysing language Saussure considers words as signs, units of meaning created through the combination of a signifier, with a signified. ![]() This is because the value of letters is purely negative and differential. As Saussure observes the same person can write t, for instance, in different ways. This is evident in the use of Emmental to represent cheese in cartoons, as the unique bubbles present in the famous swiss cheese, prevent it from being confused with yellow objects such as butter when depicted in the reduced detail of the cartoon medium. As we have seen in language signs are arbitrary and must therefore be imbued with semiotic value, which for Saussure is created according to two principles. Through these two axes of relationships the meaningful signs of language are constructed. These units create the consistuent parts of our meaningful world, as Saussure states; without language, thought is a vague, uncharted nebula. There are no pre-existing ideas, and nothing is distinct before the appearance of language. Saussure 1978, 112).
