Answer to Question 1

The meaning of a word resides in speakers of a common language. The word is a sign (symbol) that signifies a referent, often an object or action. This is an arbitrary relationship. In a few words the relationship is not arbitrary because the word resembles a sound connected to the referent.

Answer to Question 2

crime
