| Citazioni | The most important of all visual speech symbolisms is [...] that of the written or printed word, to which, on the motor side, corresponds the system of delicately adjusted movements which result in the writing or typewriting or other graphic method of recording speech. Written language is thus a point-to-point equivalence [...] to its spoken counterpart. The written forms are secondary symbols- [...] symbols of symbols- yet so close is the correspondence that they may [...] be entirely substituted for the spoken ones. |
