Events alone may suffice as Semiotic comment, or the character of the event as relates to the subject may also apply.
The vocabulary may assume the identity of circumstances and events which the individual becomes involved, that apply to specific questions the individual has asked, and to concepts one is working on. The question or concept produces a context in which to observe reality, as something to look for as examples of the problem. Because of this context, things that would otherwise go unnoticed and be meaningless take on significance. This means that these events are not necessarily Semiotic, but may simply be coincidental depending upon the history of experience the individual has
had with such study. It may come to seem evident that some are Semiotic.
The vocabulary of Semiotic Language is symbolic. Spiritual entities do not have vocal cords and thus sign or symbolic language is required. Actual voices such as the word of God, is subjective if only heard by one person, and can be constructed by the mind. Language from outside the self in the form of reality, is considered a more objective method and can be verified by the senses as well as other people.
But then the interpretation can be subjective. Since Semiotic Language is not verbally direct, it takes the form of representation. The correlations may be applicable or merely chance co-incidence. Only a history of experience can produce the knowledge necessary to make these determinations. Signs can be used to produce experience and not necessarily relate to any true reality. One can misinterpret a sign such as a peculiar tree, which causes one to take a wrong turn in the woods, perhaps get lost, which produces an experience that one would not otherwise have.
