Finnish term or phrase: merkitysmaailma
Konteksti: lapsen kehityksen myötä hänen merkitysmaailmansa laajenee. Tämä on minulle uusi termi, enkä keksi käännökseksi muuta kuin 'terms of reference'. Olisko kellään hyvää psykon sanakirjaa? Tai tietäisi muuten vaan?

Annira, instead of \"semiotic awareness\", another phrase you might use is \"semiotic perception\". It can be found used in a literary context at:
