symbolic language

Symbolic language refers to a system of communication that uses symbols—such as words, images, or gestures—to represent ideas, concepts, or emotions. Unlike literal language, which describes things directly, symbolic language conveys deeper meanings and can evoke feelings or associations. For instance, a drawing of a heart symbolizes love, while a flag may represent a nation. In various fields, such as mathematics or literature, symbolic language allows complex ideas to be expressed succinctly and creatively, facilitating understanding and interpretation across different contexts and cultures.
