The correct option is option A ("Connotative language").
Connotation refers tothe implied significance of words beyond the literal meaning that can be found in a dictionary (denotative). Language can have <u>positive</u>, <u>negative</u>, or <u>neutral </u>connotations depending on the context in which it's used. Words carry an emotional and cultural weight that is crucial to convey a specific tone or meaning in our speech.
In this case, the phrase wouldn't have had the same effect if the words "fraudulently", "deprived", or "sacred" were replaced with softer synonyms.
