It is a rebus, fine
But also a riddle

Spoken but seen a little

Is it

Blind Spot

not sure though,

from curtisks answer and the last line : "Spoken but seen a little". As, by definition : bind spot is, An area that is not able to be seen, either due to its location outside of the field of vision

  • $\begingroup$ Some explanation: I've removed the body from the sign. So only the "spot" and the "stick" left. And the riddle and the rest refers the English idiom. $\endgroup$

Is it "Blind"? It reminded me of one of the standard street signs, not seen too often except in areas where blind people live

  • $\begingroup$ You are almost there. It is simple but not that simple. Well, I have to give another hint then: It is two words, not one word. $\endgroup$

Morse code? Morse code uses dots and dashes. You can use it as a sign language to communicate (thats what some WWII POWs did in Japanese concentration camps) and its mostly spoken (or heard) in blips and bloops (more or less) and sometimes seen a little.

Is it

Blind Corner Ahead?

Because:

The sign looks like a warning to look out for blind pedestrians, but the stick figure is just a head, or "just ahead". The walking stick is pointing to a corner of the sign.

    $\begingroup$ This seems like it, but @ermanen said in a comment that it's only two words. Remove "ahead" and it'd seem spot on! $\endgroup$

Is it sign language? Just a guess; doesn't really fit the picture but it fits the third line: It must be a sign/Spoken but seen a little

I think it’s

“spot on”

because

The dot is a “spot” and the line is either the “on” part of an on/off switch, or the spot is “on” the line (collinear).

Building off @curtisk 's answer:

is it

Blind drive?

As

It follows street sign format, and "blind drive" is a common street sign (at least around me); the dot could represent Braille (used by the blind), and the line could indicate forward movement (=drive?).

Improve this answer

  • $\begingroup$ Nope. So close. It is related to driving also. $\endgroup$
