What tool would one use to find a word's denotation?
Mekhanik [1.2K]
You would use a Dictionary.

Dictionaries show denotative meanings while thesauruses show synonyms. Atlases show positioning of something somewhere (such as the geographical or the anatomical atlas) and an encyclopaedia shows a detailed description of a certain part of reality or fiction.
