From the perspective of cognitive linguistics, this paper explores Saussure's ideas on linguistic signs. It is demonstrated that arbitrariness is balanced by motivation in linguistic signs and the segmentation of signification is tied to the conceptualization of different language users and undergoes psychological entrenchment. Furthermore, linguistic signs are encyclopedic and dynamic in nature. In addition, the dynamics is reflected in signifier/signified fluctuation, whicn can be interpretated with the aid of prototype theory.
