Which is the best definition of denotation?

c.the literal, or real, meaning of what is being communicated

Respuesta :

I believe it is C because Denotation means the literal meaning of a word in contrast to the feeling that the word suggests
The best definition of denotation is C. the literal, or real, meaning of what is being communicated.
Denotation refers to the 'dictionary definition' of a word, to what it actually means and refers to. On the other hand, connotation has to do with your personal feelings that a certain word may evoke.
