When a word has an emotion or attitude attached to it that's the word'sA. Definition
B. Connotation
C. Origin
D. Denotation

Answers

The correct answer is B. connotation.
Connotation refers to your emotions and attitudes when it comes to a particular word. For example, when you say the word 'home,' you will probably have positive emotions when you think about your family, warmth, and hot meals. Denotation is the actual definition of a word you would find in a dictionary (so it is the same as option A), and origin of the word has nothing to do with feelings.
An attitude or an emotion attached to a word's meaning is called Connotation.

Denotation is the literal meaning of the word, while origin and definition are unrelated.

. Analyze Consider how Sergei reacts when Yoni comes to his door. Does his response seem rational (reasonable) or not? How does Sergei’s cultural experience help explain his reaction

Answer:

Yoni did not listen to him the first time Sergei did not want to answer his questions as a result Sergei felt justified in  pushing Yoni away.
