Abstract

This article deals with the links between signifier and signified from the study of three deverbal nouns: Llamada, llamado and llamamiento. They were studied in context and coupled with a limited set of adjectives determined on the basis of their frequency of use. By comparing the utterances collected with the semeiological analysis of the three forms, it seems possible to show that the morphological singularity of the signifier is a way in to a signified which is also unique. Our interest in the "reading" of these surface forms (morphologies) has led us to consider this reading in relation to time and movement: this is a construction process for the signified which we term signified in the making.
