Words similar to connotation

Example sentences for: connotation

How can you use “connotation” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

It keeps the initial capital A and the first two syllables of "A&A" (pronounced "A 'n' A"); it puns on "eon," which implies longevity and stability--a desirable connotation for an insurance-services company, especially one that has just undergone a major and disruptive change; it has a remote but perceptible similarity in sound to "Bain"; and it gives the company a unique, legally protectable, and memorable name, unlike the generic "Combined Insurance" moniker.
The terms used here are not immediately transparent: if by communicative intention is meant `denotative purpose, the information the speaker wishes to convey,' unless one views communication in the broadest way, it would seem to me that the definition confuses denotation with connotation; that is to say, whether an expression is euphemistic, neutral, or taboo is a matter of connotation, and the fact that a speaker avoids shit for defecate, move one's bowels , etc., is purely a connotative matter: denotatively (communicatively?)
Making all the right noises, carrying the connotation just described, seems to have surfaced mainly in British publications in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
I can conclude only that that communicative intention is used to mean both denotation and connotation: but if that is so, then it would seem that the contrast implicit in euphemism is lost.
Not only does the word itself sound more fluid, but I also think the connotation it has is more appropriate to the meaning Slate intends.
