The list of connotational meanings varies with different linguistic schools and individual scholars and includes such entries as
pragmatic (directed at the perlocutionary effect of utterance),
evaluative (stating the value of the indicated notion),
emotive (revealing the emotional layer of cognition and perception),
expressive (aiming at creating the image of the object in question),
stylistic (indicating “the register”, or the situation of the communication) and others.
Associative (connected through individual psychological or linguistic associations with related and non-related notions),
ideological, or conceptual (revealing political, social, ideological preferences of the user).
Emotive Charge.
Words contain an element of emotive evaluation as part of the connotational meaning. The emotive charge of the words tremendous, worship, girlie is heavier than that of the words large, like, girl. This does not depend on the “feeling” of the individual speaker but is true for all speakers of English.
