What does the word 'Denotation' mean?

Answer: Depends on what your talking about so I'll give all 3 definitions.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) The literal or primary meaning of a word, in contrast to the feelings or ideas that the word suggests.

-Used in a sentence - Beyond their immediate denotation, the words have a connotative power.

2.) When used in philosophy it means, the object or concept to which a term refers, or the set of objects of which a predicate is true.

3.) And, the last definition is, the action or process of indicating or referring to something by means of a word, symbol, etc.
