How can you say something with ... colors and pictures?

Besides using words, there's another language made up of colors and pictures. We call it visual language. You see it everywhere. Colors in traffic lights, for example, tell you whether to stop or go. Pictures on clothing labels show you how to wash them. And so on.

Flags

You may also come across visual language at places where you can swim outdoors, like at the beach or a lake. Sometimes there are flags that show whether it's safe to go into the water. Of course, it’s really important that everyone understands these flags well. That is why we're investigating how the flags should look so that they are clear for everyone.
