He pointed out that language is a system of signs, making the linguistic sign crucial in linguistic studies. The linguistic sign represents a basic unit of communication and comprises two essential aspects: the signifier and the signified. Saussure sought to move beyond the traditional concept that focuses on terms like word, expression, name, and object, introducing instead the concepts of the signifier and the signified.
