Source: An Introduction to Language by Victoria FromkinLater drawings, however, are clearly "picture writings," or pictograms. Unlike modern writing systems, each pictogram is a direct image of the object it represents. There is a nonarbitrary relationship between the form and meaning of the symbol. Comic strips, minus captions, are pictographic - literal representations of the ideas to be communicated.
Hello,
What does "minus captions" mean? Does it mean small titles?
Thank you.
