Signs and Symbols
Symbols, whether they are signals, signs, photographs or drawings, convey a message. Those who use them to communicate must understand the message they represent. Symbols can be the unique representation of someone who relies on them to communicate and/or from commercially available picture sets and systems. Examples are given here.

I simboli, sia che si tratti di segni, gesti, fotografie o disegni, trasmettono un messaggio. Chi li utilizza per comunicare deve comprendere il messaggio che essi rappresentano. I simboli possono essere la rappresentazione specifica di chi si affida ad essi per comunicare e/o risultante da insiemi e sistemi di figure disponibili sul mercato. Sono qui riportati alcuni esempi.
