Respuesta :

Answer and Explanation:

We can define denotation as the literal meaning(s) of a word, the one(s) we can find in a dictionary, or simply the one that is habitually attributed to the word.

On the other hand, connotation refers to possible positive or negative associations that word may have. It is a meaning beyond the habitual one(s), a secondary meaning that demands context and interpretation to be understood.

Answer:

While denotation is the literal meaning of the word, connotation is a feeling or indirect meaning. For example: Denotation: blue (color blue) Connotation: blue (feeling sad).One word can have a both a “denotation” and a “connotation”. These are called “figures of speech”. DENOTATION: The direct definition of the word that you find in the dictionary. CONNOTATION: The emotional suggestions of a word, that is not literal.
