Semiòtica Semiòtica i semiologia és l'estudi dels sistemes de signes, especialment en relació al llenguatge però amb conseqüències en altres àrees de les ciències socials on les qüestions d'interpretació són de gran importància. Les teories que s'apliquen al disseny gràfic i a la comunicació visual procedeixen de l'estudi de la ciència, coneguda com a semiologia a Europa i semiòtica als Estats Units La nova ciència va ser postulada a principis del segle XIX per Ferdinand de Saussure (1875-1913), un professor suís de lingüística. Els principis fonamentals actuals de la semiòtica van ser escoltats pels alumnes de Saussure en un curs de lingüística impartit a la Universitat de Ginebra entre 1906 i 1911. Abans de Saussure els estudis del llenguatge s'ocupaven sobretot de l'ús històric de la llengua. Abans del curs a Ginebra, Saussure també es dedicava a l'estudi de la llengua.

Personally, some kind of rock is preferred. According to the infographic, more people listen to rock music when they are upset.
