Answer:

The Connotation and the denotation are two different methods of distinguishing the meaning of language. Connotation generally has an emotional connection which can be positive or a minus.

Explanation:

It is a spirit or emotion associated with the word. On other hand, Denotation mention the direct meaning of a word. It does not describe the personal emotions or feelings of a word. It is the Factual or dictionary meaning of a word.  

Example:

  • Denotative meaning of home is a place where one can live or resides.  
  • The “connotative meaning of home” is a place security, comfortability and family existence.
