[...] signifier: the signifier (Fr. signifiant) is the expressive, externalized component or aspect of a linguistic sign, as opposed to the signified (Fr. signifié), which is the meaning or content of the sign. (Swiggers, Pierre. "Linguistic sign". 1.

The signified of the expression includes the signified of one of its constituent words (w 1) which is freely chosen and another word or expression (w 2) which is chosen contingent to (w 1). (Fonseca, Sadat & Lareau, 2016)
