In language and communication, symbols can often be interpreted in different ways. A flashing red light means 'stop, look, proceed' in an intersection but means 'left turn' or 'right turn' when it is on a car's rear lights.
The same is true in film. A symbolic event, like a man diving into water, can mean or foreshadow a cleansing. It can also signal danger or death. It can also symbolize chaos.
In math, most symbols have just one meaning. Some symbols can have multiple meanings depending on context. For example, (5, 7) can mean the ordered pair x=5, y=7. It can also mean the set containing the numbers 5 and 7.
There are also international variations on the meanings of symbols. For example 8,8 in America doesn't mean much but in Europe it means 8.8
