Positive or negative connotation is common in Literal language Context language Technical language Figurative language
Connotation: A meaning of a word or phrase that is suggested or implied, as opposed to a denotation, or literal meaning. Literal language refers to words that do not deviate from their defined meaning. Contextual and technical languages are how they relate specifically for that usage. Figurative language: language that uses words or expressions with a meaning that is different from the literal interpretation. Connotation is not the literal meaning of the word. So that eliminates A. B and C can be eliminated because they are specific only to their applications and therefore do not have a connotation only denotation. The only option is D, figurative language is what writer's use in fiction, where half the time what they are saying is not what they literally mean.
