What are some examples of denotation and connotation words?

English
1 answer:
Kitty [74]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:For example, denotation of the word “blue” is the color blue, but its connotation is “sad”—read the following sentence: The blueberry is very blue. We understand this sentence by its denotative meaning—it describes the literal color of the fruit.

Connotation is the use of a word to suggest a different association than its literal meaning, which is known as denotation. For example, blue is a color, but it is also a word used to describe a feeling of sadness, as in: “She's feeling blue.” Connotations can be either positive, negative, or neutral.

scoray [572]

Answer:

The fact that he placed his awards on a triangular scrap suggests that he no longer placed much value on them

Explanation:

Shamengwa is a fiddle (or a violin player) who is partially challenged in one arm. He is described as an old man, a granduncle who has had his fair share of years.

Though he and his music are popular because they are emotive, the narrator states that he is seldom invited to popular jigs. His music was doubled-edged.   It made people happy as much as it made them cry. Because of this, he wasn't wanted at every party. Parties were for dancing and happiness. He had a maverick way of expressing his soul through the violin.

His popularity has earned him a reasonable amount of awards, the kinds that were more Class B in nature. His awards meant little to him. To him, they were relics of the past. He'd rather have his grandniece play with them than have them properly kept or taken care of.

Cheers

Which information, if included in a footnote or glossary, would most help to reveal the conflict between the speaker and his "co
riadik2000 [5.3K]
The information that would be most helpful in determining the conflict between the speaker and his coy mistress is that Rubies were valued in Asia as amulets thought to preserve virginity. 

This is helpful, because it hints at the later concept of the poem of the speaker desiring to have intercourse with his "coy" beloved, while the other statements are merely facts that are unrelated to the overall themes of the poem.
