Also known as semiotic studies, semiology

Semiotics is the study of signs. It is an interdisciplinary field that examines what signs are, how they form sign systems, and how individuals use them to communicate meaning. Its main branches are syntactics, which addresses formal relations between signs, semantics, which addresses the relation between signs and their meanings, and pragmatics, which addresses the relation between signs and their users. Semiotics is related to linguistics but has a broader scope that includes nonlinguistic signs, such as maps and clothing.

AI overview

Semiotics is the study of signs and how they work together to communicate meaning, examining everything from words to maps to clothing. It matters because it helps us understand not just what signs are, but how their formal structure, their meanings, and their users all interact to create communication across many different forms beyond just language.
