Semantics investigates how meaning is constructed and interpreted. A common pitfall for learners is failing to distinguish between denotation and connotation, which can lead to social misunderstandings. Regarding word meanings, choose the correct alternative.
- AConnotation refers to the emotional or cultural associations that a word carries beyond its literal, dictionary definition.
- BSynonyms are words that have exactly the same meaning in every possible context, allowing for 100% interchangeable usage without stylistic loss.
- CAntonyms are words that share a similar meaning but are spelled differently, such as "couch" and "sofa."
- DDenotation is the process of using metaphors and similes to describe a concept that is too abstract for a literal explanation.
