Different Meanings Of Content Specific Words

(Connotation, Denotation)

Background Information for Learners

Correct and concrete interpretation of meaning paves the way for better and clearer communication and/ or
understanding. Thus, the knowledge and understanding of the denotation or the dictionary meaning of words or
statements and their connotation or implied meaning will enhance one’s comprehension skills.

Denotation is the specific, exact and concrete meaning of a word. This is the meaning you will find in a
dictionary.

Connotation is an idea or quality that a word makes you think about in addition to its meaning. It refers to the
emotions associated with a word. Sometimes it has social cultural implications. It can be positive or negative.

Dictionary is made up of entry words listed in alphabetical order. Each entry states how a word is pronounced
and what the word means.

Denotation: I saw a white dove flying in a blue sky.

“ The actual meaning of the word dove in the sentence is a little white bird with a round body, small head
and short legs that makes cooing sounds”.

Connotation: President Duterte sided with the dove and worked to avoid war in the country.
“The connotative meaning of the word dove in the sentence is a person who wants peace.”
