I think technical terms in literary theory need a reason to exist like when they supply a meaning that common English doesn't. In the case of 'semiotize', I think it's basically a very lofty way to say 'production of meaning'. That's just my opinion though!

semiotize


Explanation:
semiotize comes from Semiotics (سيموطيقا), which is the study of signs and sign processes (semiosis), indication, designation, likeness, analogy, metaphor, symbolism, signification, and communication. Semiotics is closely related to the field of linguistics

Semiosis


Explanation:
ويحلّل أبو زيد في "النص والسلطة والحقيقة" إعادة إنتاج النص للواقع في حركته الراجعة، "بعملية إعادة بناء دلالة العلاقات اللغوية في نظام اللغة الأساسي، حيث يتم تحويل تلك العلاقات في نسق العلامات اللغوية إلى نسق العلامات السميولوجية (أو السيميوطيقية)، وبعبارة أخرى تقوم اللغة الدينية من خلال عملية التحويل تلك ـ ويطلق عليها مصطلح السمطقة Semiosis ـ بالاستيلاء على اللغة الأساسية والاستحواذ عليها، والاستيلاء على اللغة يعني الاستيلاء على "العالم" الذي تنظّمه اللغة من خلال نظامها العلاماتي، وهذا يفضي بدوره إلى الاستيلاء على "الإنسان" عن طريق امتلاك وعيه بآليات التحويل...

أما السميوطيقا الأدبية ففرع منها يختص بدراسة فئة معينة من النصوص المنطوقة. يحدد موريس- بناء على فهمه للسمطقة* "semiosis" بوصفها عملية تقوم العلامات من خلالها بوظيفة الناقلvehicle والأشياء المفسرة interpretants والمؤولين- ثلاثة نطاقات متكاملة للبحث: علم النحو الذي يدرس علاقة العلامات الحاملة في نظام العلامات وعلم الدلالة الذي يدرس علاقة العلامات بالموضوعات التي تشير إليها والبراغماتية التي تدرس علاقة العلامات بالمؤولين.
