Sound of percussion instruments reaching characters (7)
I believe the answer is:
symbols

'sound of percussion instruments' is the first definition.
The definition and answer can be both related to communication as well as being plural nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'characters' is the second definition.
The answer and definition can be both related to thinking as well as being plural nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'reaching' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for symbols that I've seen before include "Representatinal signs" , "Tokens" , "Signs representing other things" .)
