Opis

This book explores relationships between pairs of signs in terms of their form, meaning and context. It shows that many relationships among linguistic units such as synonymy, polysemy and allomorphy can be seen as parts of a single semiotic system. The authors use the term fingerprinting because comparing two constructions is similar to determining whether one fingerprint is similar to another.
