Denotative is the dictionary meaning, while connotative refers to the connotation of the word. For example, crunchy has a positive connotation, and, say, brittle, has a negative connotation. Do you have specific words/phrases?

T/F? Your audience is more likely to agree on connotative definitions of a word than its denotative definition.
