The dynamics of meaning production for Saussure occurs through dichotomies. One of these dichotomies is between Speech and Language. The dichotomies are opposite and complementary, there is no language without speech, and no speech without language, but they have characteristics that differentiate them. Language is considered a social phenomenon, which arises from social interaction, being immutable for the individual. Language gains structure and is governed by laws that stabilize it.

Based on this information, analyze the assertions below:
I. Given this, we can admit that a person does not have the power to modify the structure or rules of language.

BECAUSE

Regarding these assertions, choose the correct option:


a. Assertion I is false and II is true.
b. Assertions I and II are true, but II is not a correct justification for I.
c. Assertion I is true and II is false.
d. Assertions I and II are true and II is a correct justification for I.
e. Assertions I and II are false.
