Denotation and connotation, the true meaning for English


BEYOND THE TEXT 

The connotation and literal meaning of a word don't influence each other at all.
Resultado de imagen para detonation and connotationDenotation can be thought of as dictionary meanings or definitions. Connotation is related to the subjective and cultural experiences of individuals. For example, when a person uses the word, “father,” it will not be value free. A father may connote various other thoughts and feelings such as kindness, severity, love, or abuse.

Therefore, in interpreting a text, it will be important to ask what words connote in that particular context. Also it will be important to realize that words can connote very different notions with a change in time and place.
Here is another example from the modern day. Bad can mean something not good, but among some young people, "bad" can mean cool. The connotation of the word is radically different.


The important thing is to make sure you know what the connotation is if it's significantly different from the literal meaning. For example, the literal meaning of the word "molest" is simply to bother or disturb. The connotation, however, is doing something sexual to someone where the other party isn't a consenting participant, in general usage, it means the other party is a child.
