The answer to the blank is: denotative.

Denotative meaning is the direct and literal meaning of a word, just as you would find it, for example, on a dictionary. Denotation is usually confused with connotation, but the latter differs in its meaning in as much as this one refers to the sense of the word as it is comprehended temporally, historically, culturally, and even personally (by means of subjective associations).

Denotative. Connotative is more like the "feeling" that goes with typical use of the word, like whether it's typically a good or a bad thing.

Read the lines from Act I of Hamlet, in which King Claudius comments on Hamlet's mourning, and answer the question.
Archy [21]

The answer is:

B. Grieving is considered cowardly and serves for the weak of heart.

In King Claudius' lines from "Shakespeare," he expresses to Hamlet that he should not be sad over the loss of his father. First, because it is the natural law of life - parents die and their children outlast them. Secondly, it is not manly - mourning a father is not a masculine attitude a man should possess. Likewise, such behavior belongs to those who have a sensitive heart and a weak mind. He also suggests that Hamlet starts calling him father.
