A sign is an object, quality, event, or entity that indicates the probable presence or occurrence of something else—for example, thunder signals an approaching storm, or a red light signals that you should stop. Signs matter because they allow us to understand and communicate about things we cannot directly perceive: natural signs work through causal relationships (like symptoms indicating illness), while conventional signs rely on shared agreements about meaning (like a stop sign's meaning).
