  • A 'Sign' can have temporal-direct-parts which are 'Sign' themselves.
  • A 'Sign' usually havs 'sign' spatial direct parts only up to a certain elementary semiotic level, in which the part is only a 'Physical' and no more a 'Sign' (i.e. it stands for nothing). This elementary semiotic level is peculiar to each particular system of signs (e.g. text, painting).

    Just like an 'Elementary' in the 'Physical' branch, each 'Sign' branch should have an a-tomistic mereological part. [en]

    • According to Peirce, 'Sign' includes three subcategories:

    - symbols: that stand for an object through convention - indeces: that stand for an object due to causal continguity

    - icons: that stand for an object due to similitudes e.g. in shape or composition [en]
