Discussion»Questions»Communication» Can someone please help me to figure out what this picture means, I been trying for an hour to figure it out and I’m getting angry.
It's visual code based on the intersection between signs, images and language.
The word opinion minus pi (3.14 or the relationship of a circle to its diameter) equals o-n-i-o-n or onion. Instead of using the words they've used images, hence the sign for pi plus an onion sliced at the point where pi appears in the spelling of opinion So the answer to the puzzle is the word opinion.
Interestingly enough, the Greek letter between the two parts of the onion in your question is actually pronounced "pee" and not "pie."---But it is more widely known through its scientific spelling pi, pronunciation as "pie."

It is PIE. Unless your are actually speaking ancient Greek.
"I would argue that π, especially as a mathematical symbol, has diverged enough from its Greek origin to make using Greek pronunciation misguided at best, and pedantic at worst. While it is true that the origin of the letters are the Greek alphabet, so too do those Greek letters have an ‘earlier’ form with different pronunciation (pē in this case). And really, every other letter in English is also derived from the Latin alphabet, in turn derived from Greek. Imagine how pedantic you would need to be to insist the letter a be pronounced /ˈælfə/ and written in the Ancient Greek form, and that every other European language was wrong for pronouncing/writing it differently. Anyone doing so would rightly be ridiculed or ignored."
