Semantic Interaction between Signs in Caricature: Linguistic Exploration to the Movement of Meaning from Sign to Style

Abstract

Both Sender & Recipient do communicate through the utilization of signs within a specific context. These signs operate via Grammatical and Stylistic System, which has an essential role in testing meaning more accurately. As a matter of fact, in any communication based on Linguistic Interaction, errors can be corrected, words are modified, and even clarification could be increased. We usually raise inquiries, such as “Do you mean this?” The Recipient to this inquiry may clarify his idea by using more accurate style. But how do tags or signs function in a graphic speech? Can we consider these signs in a Caricature as the intended style? In order to answer these questions, we shall assume that the Semantic Interaction between the signs of a Caricature is the Style, and to test the validity of such assumption, we shall focus on the movement of signs towards the style and ending at the communication process, since the latter is deemed a critical point in testing meaning.
