Identify the connotative meaning of “dog.” (Select all that apply.) Canine Loyal Friendly Dangerous

OpenStudy (blm1):

Do you know what connotative means?

OpenStudy (littlediva12459):

no

OpenStudy (blm1):

Connotative words like short, happy, and playful might describe a 3 year old. Okay, so what are some words that could describe what a dog can be like?

OpenStudy (blm1):

I'll give you a hint, only one of the words up there is wrong.

OpenStudy (suenahelpz):

@blm1 Great explanation ;w;

OpenStudy (blm1):

Thanks @Suenahelpz English is my strongest subject and I love to help people with it as much as I can.

@LittleDiva12459

OpenStudy (littlediva12459):

All of them?

OpenStudy (alliekat01):

Rather than looking for the words that identify a connotative meaning, look for the one that doesn't. There will only be one.

OpenStudy (littlediva12459):

one what

OpenStudy (littlediva12459):

i can choose more than one

OpenStudy (alliekat01):

There is one word that is not a connotative meaning for the word dog. When you think of a dog do you think "oh hey, that's a canine"? or do you think something more along the lines of, "that is a loyal and friendly dog"?

OpenStudy (littlediva12459):

so would it be these 3 Loyal Friendly Dangerous

OpenStudy (alliekat01):

Yes! Good job! :)

OpenStudy (littlediva12459):

thanks for the help

OpenStudy (alliekat01):

Do you get it now though? No problem

OpenStudy (littlediva12459):

yea that makes more sense

OpenStudy (alliekat01):

That's great!

Sorry I wasn't there to help, I went to eat lunch 🍴
