The correct response is **connotation**.
Connotation refers to the implied or associated meanings of a word beyond its literal definition (denotation), which can vary based on an author's purpose, point of view, and the intended audience. Diction, while related to word choice, is more about the specific language used than the meanings that arise from context and perspective.
