The most important thing a good
sign
must possess is the
ability
to be
loud
. A sign must have a minimal amount of
frills
(these distract from the
true meaning
of the sign), and say something without the possibility of it being
misinterpreted
. If someone
infers
the wrong thing from a sign, it wasn't loud enough. A good example of a loud sign is a
stop sign
. This is a
big red octagonal sign
that says STOP on it. Unless you're
blind
, you will know exactly what it is trying to say. Even if you can't read
English
, you probably will stop because the sign is red. It jumps out at you and says, " HEY I'm red, that means STOP." If a sign is not loud, then it tends to get
ignored
.
