Dictionary definitions give us an idea of how unstable the concepts are that can be signified by Signifyin(g).
I imagine this instability results from signifyin as being a living rhetorical mode, something that is constantly evolving as it is practiced; I think it also suggests how oral and everyday it is--signifyin' and its different forms are in practice in everyday conversations among African Americans.
