Semiotics ( signs )

The world is really visual when you think about it , These symbols that you see on the toilet doors and even on the road them signs that show you the directions of where to go , without these symbols you would feel lost, Texts just will not do in certain situations , what if someone does not understand english or does not understand how to communicate to ask anyone , they would rely on these symbols to guide them through everyday life , Even me when walking through a shopping mall , when i need the toilet , i would look for the man and women sign , which will guide me which way it is .
Even underground tube signs and bus stops , on some of the maps you see on the street they will use the little signs and place them on the map so that you can easily pinpoint where the place you need is, which is helpful .
There are some that may pefer text to symbols but me personally , i feel like symbols are more of a need then text , as some people just may not be able to read and will need the symbols to work things out .
