Origin
The word "signification" entered the English language in the 14th century from Middle French "significacion," which in turn was derived from Latin "significare." The Latin verb "significare" meant "to make a sign" or "to indicate." Over time, the meaning of "significare" evolved to include the idea of conveying or expressing a meaning.
