<p><b>New page</b></p><div>In semantics, '''connotation''' is a term which is often used in opposition to [[denotation]], covering the more secondary and subjective aspects of meaning that people associate with expressions. <br />
<br />
===Examples===<br />
The words ''sidewalk'' and ''pavement'' have the same [[denotation]], but different connotation. <br />
<br />
===Comment===<br />
The term is also used more generally to cover everything that is part of the [[meaning]] of an expression except for its [[denotation]]. In this sense, the term is in some respect similar to [[intension]]. <br />
