Evaluative connotation in the semantic structure

The denotative component of lexical meaning expressed the conceptual content of a word. Fulfilling the nominative and the communicative functions of the word, it is present in every word and may be regarded as the central factor in the functional language. To denote is to serve as a linguistic expression for a concept or as a name for an individual object. It is the denotational meaning that makes communication possible. For example: when we say стіл, стілець, ліжко, книга etc. we don’t imagine its design, creator, year and so on, we imagine only what they denote: стіл – people can sit in front of it, книга – people can read it and see pictures.
