Denotative is literal or serious. Connotative is an idea or feeling.

The Denotative is the literal or primary meaning of a word, in contrast to the feelings or ideas that the word suggests. The Connotation is an idea or feeling that a word invokes in addition to its literal or primary meaning.

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