About the concept of connotation:

  • "[psychological attitudes] are constructions from one particular (i.e., Western) indigenous psychology that necessarily will take on different connotations in other cultures, if they are transferable at all", Encyclopedia of critical psychology, p.350.
  • "the act of connoting; the suggesting of an additional meaning for a word or expression, apart from its explicit meaning." (https://www.dictionary.com/browse/connotation)
