Paragraph four of Anna Quindlen "Quilt of a country" is mainly constructed with questions, and repeats the words "What is the point" at the beginning of each question.

The direct, essential meaning of a term is its ___________.
Ostrovityanka [42]
<span>The correct answer should be something like definition or denotation. The definition is our understanding of the word at its most basic level, stripped of implicit meanings that we create on our own. Connotative meaning would come when all of our understanding of the world and all of our prejudices are combined in order to create a more complex meaning unique to us.</span>
