signaletic positive

Morphology

signaletic = signal (transparent) = signal + etic

Formed directly from 'signal' with the adjectival suffix '-etic', meaning 'relating to signals', which is directly inferable.

Etymology

Signaletic comes from signal, which goes back to Latin signum meaning 'sign', and the ending -etic meaning 'related to'. So, signaletic is 'about signals' or ways to send messages, which fits its use in communications and transport systems.
