  • Figurative expression. Adopt this word on savethewords.org!

    January 28, 2009

  • I adopted this word on savethewords.org. It refers to a figurative expression. While it's only folk etymology, I believe the word is related to things like icon, iconography, and so forth. In this sense, it refers to using a symbol or "icon" to express something.
