Second articulation
At the (lower) structural level of second articulation, a semiotic code is divisible into minimal functional units which lack meaning in themselves (e.g. phonemes in speech or graphemes in writing). These lower units are nonsignifying sign elements - purely differential structural units (called figurae by Hjelmslev). They are recurrent features in the code.
