Connotation will always mean figurative.

Denotative will always pertain to the dictionary meaning.

Your question asks for two words that have emotional meanings.

Here are a couple used in sentences so that you may understand more clearly:

"Don't be a chicken! Eat the tide pod! Come on!"

She looked at the man in joyful tears, "I finally have a home!"

While the detonative (dictionary; literal) meaning of chicken is “a type of domesticated fowl, a subspecies of the red junglefowl,” that is not what was implied by the speaker in the sentence above. The connotative (figurative, implied) meaning of “chicken” fell more along the lines of “scaredy-cat” or “punk.”  

As for the second sentence, the woman could have used the word “house” but when you hear or think of the word “home” you think of warmth, family, and many sentimental memories – this is a classic example of connotation. The detonative meaning however of the word “home” is “a living space used as a permanent or semi-permanent residence for an individual, family, household or several families in a tribe.”

In which of Alexander Popes works does he twist the conventions of the epic poem to create a satirical tone? Support your answer
jok3333 [9.3K]
I believe Pope twisted the conventions of the epic poem in order to create a satirical tone in his The R.ape of the Lock.
It was created as a mock poem, written in order to ridicule heroic epic poems of the Classical and Post-Classical eras. Pope used the heroic couplets throughout the poem in order to give it an elevated style; however, if you read the poem, you will see that the theme is quite mundane - the poem talks about how somebody stole a strand of a girl's hair.
