The word with a connotative meaning is "Courageous" since the word doesn't have a literal or direct meaning and its definition relies more on emotion.

Answer:

transparent

Explanation:

The connotative meaning of a word refers to the feelings and ideas associated with it, or the secondary meaning of the word rather than the literal or explicit one, called denotative.

Therefore, the denotative meaning of the word transparent has to do with allowing light to pass through so that objects behind can be distinctly seen. However, <u>its connotative meaning is obvious, understandable, candid and honest.</u>
