The difficulty of today's topic is that the word that we will consider has a bad name. A sign is almost always bad. Moreover, high style fills us with fear and awe. And it’s not worth talking about all the terrible stories that are associated with the noun. But our task is modest - to understand the meaning, to establish whether a noun always means trouble, and to choose synonyms that would help the reader in difficult times.
Value
Have you ever thought about how the sign works, if by it we mean a bad sign? Imagine that we are going to work, and a black cat runs out to meet us, and that’s it - our day is ruined. But should we think that maybe the little animal needs a new house, that maybe evil people kicked him out? And then the sign will immediately change the sign from “minus” to “plus”, it's nice to find a friend, right?
Consciousness is capable, if not programming reality, then precisely determine the mood of a person. If he believes that something marks a bad turn, then the latter is bound to happen. If there is nothing frankly bad, then a person will invent it.
And now, to break this black witchcraft of consciousness, let's rehabilitate the meaning of the word “sign”:
- Sign, symbol.
- Same as an omen.
The whole word, as we said a little earlier, belongs to high style. Let us also explain the second meaning and the noun “omen”: “A phenomenon that portends something.” And here the most important thing: the dictionary gives both happy omens and unhappy ones. A sign is something that is not necessary to be afraid of.
suggestions
We are sure that we will enjoy it by writing examples for the reader, because the topic is fascinating, so we will not hesitate:
- You know, a guy gave me a black kitten, what do you think, this can serve as a sign of trouble?
- Signs are not simple superstitions, there are those that really work. For example, if you came out of your house annoyed, then work on that day will not work, and you will surely fall off. Irritation and internal strife - a sign of a bad day.
- Listen, all the signs are nonsense. Only one thing is important: do you believe in them or not.
It is difficult to agree with the last statement. If you correctly interpret reality and its clues, you can achieve a lot in life, because in this way a person becomes acquainted with the secret knowledge behind reality.
Synonyms
In the previous argument there is only one detail: no one has yet reliably proved the existence of secret knowledge. Well, we will pass from the secret to the obvious - to the synonyms of the sign, and this will not be amiss:
- sign;
- symbol;
- omen
- precursor.
One could add to the list the noun “sign”, but there is no complete certainty that this is justified. All nouns on the list indicate something elusive and intuitive. A sign is something more tangible and definite. Let the material serve as a good omen and be a great start to the day.
