Speaking of sign, I would like to have some explanation about the differents uses of sign and signal. Thanks in advance.
Hi Sergio. Great question! Think of signal as something like a human gesture (like a wave hello or a wink), or an electronic indicator (such as a traffic signal, or the beep of the washing machine). A sign is a board that has informational words or symbols (like a traffic stop sign)
Thanks a lot for the promt reply. My doubt lies on phrases like “his reaction is a sign/signal of bad mood” Which one to use?
