;-) Think of an example of 3 words that have the same denotation, but different connotations

Sagot :

Answer:

it would be wrong to say that the words "smile" and "smirk" have the same denotation but different connotations (with "smile" being positive and "smirk" negative). The definition of "smirk" is "a smug or conceited smile." The very definition of smirk—its denotation—is already negative.

Group - The word simply describes a number of people. It does not inspire either positive or negative feelings.

Clique - means a group of people, but it carries a negative connotation. This is because "clique" is typically used in circumstances where the group is known for excluding others. This word should be used carefully.

Gang - defined as an organized group, but it has very negative connotations. The use of this term suggests criminal activity and/or violent behavior.

Club - refers to a group of people, but this word has a more positive connotation because a club is a collection of people that voluntarily come together for a shared passion or purpose.
