The correct answer is A. The literal, or real, meaning of what is being communicated

Explanation:

In language, the denotation of words, phrases or similar refer to the literal meaning of them which is linked to the dictionary meaning of words. This implies, the denotation of language does not include implicit, hidden or related meanings but just the real meaning words have according to language standards. This word is the opposite of connotation that refers to the meaning people gives to words and language according to their culture or experience and that includes images, thoughts, feelings, etc. Considering this, the denotation means "the literal, or real, the meaning of what is being communicated".
