Logo
From Wikipedia, a free encyclopedia written in simple English for easy reading.
A logo is a picture or drawing that is used by a person, group, or company to mark who they are.
A company or group can use a 'logo' on the things that they make, like on the things they sell, on letters, and in advertisements. When another person sees the logo picture, that person knows that the thing they see the logo on came from that company.
Logos can have letters and words in them. Many logos have the name of the company or group in them.
Most logos are very simple drawings with only a small number of colors. Some logos are only black and white.
In many countries, companies and groups should tell their country's government about the logo they are using. If they do this, the government can help stop a different company or group from using the same logo, so that everyone can be sure that the logo is only used by the people who used it first. This is sometimes called a 'trade mark'.
Companies are not the only ones who can use a logo. Many schools have logos. Some cities have logos. Clubs can have logos. Even people can have their own logos if they want.
