What is your answer?

In Wittgenstein's Tractatus, a "simple sign" is one that

    { 1 } - has only one syllable.
    { 2 } - represents a simple object.
    { 3 } - is undefined in a given system (although it may be defined in another).

2 is correct!

In Wittgenstein's Tractatus, a "simple sign" is one that

    { 1 } - has only one syllable.
    { 2 } - represents a simple object.
    { 3 } - is undefined in a given system (although it may be defined in another).

For each simple object in the universe, there is a corresponding "simple sign" or "name" that refers to it. We arrive at such simple objects and signs by analyzing complex statements down to their simplest components. A complex statement has one and only one complete analysis.

This is a pretty good guess.
