SEMANTICS
AND PRAGMATICS
FALL
2022
LAST DATE: 08-12-2022
QUESTION:
Write
your own views on the given topic. Your comments should NOT exceed 150-200
words.
Denotation
refers to when you mean what you say, literally. Connotation is created when
you mean something else, something that might be initially hidden.
Differentiate both denotation and connotation in terms of pragmatic and
semantic levels.
Answer:
Denotation
is when you mean what you say, literally. Connotation is created when you
mean something else, something that might be initially hidden. The connotative
meaning of a word is based on implication, or shared emotional association with
a word. But take note! A denotation is what the word literally says. If these
words were on a trip, connotation would be the baggage, and denotation would be
the traveler. A connotation is the baggage a word or idea drags around. The
word "baggage" often has a negative connotation.
The
main difference between semantics and pragmatics is that the semantics
studies the meaning of words and their meaning within sentences whereas the
pragmatics studies the same words and meanings but with emphasis on their
context as well. Both semantics and pragmatics are two main branches of study
in linguistics.
Semantics
and pragmatics are both related to the way meaning is derived from
language. Semantics studies the meaning that words and certain combinations of
words hold for both the speaker and listener. Pragmatics deals with how the
context in which words are used can dictate their true meaning at that
particular time.
