Kress bases on social semiotic hypothesis to represent significance making: Words are (relatively) empty entities-in a semiotic account they are signifiers to be filled with meaning rather than signs full of meaning, and the task of the reader is to fill these relatively vacant entities with her or his meaning. This is the task we call interpretation, namely interpreting what sign the writer may have intended to make with this signifier (Kress, G. 2005).

Ms. Campbell was grateful for this deed, I asked her how it looked and she said “ it looks great, it’s so much better! Thank you!” Doing this act made me proud knowing that I could help her. This act also made me glad that I could do the act for her and she wouldn’t have to do it herself or worry about it any longer. Another…
