Connotation is an idea or feeling that a word invokes in addition to its literal or primary meaning. A connotation for old could be grumpy, slow movements, a feeling of sadness, a feeling of love, etc. A connotation of "It's time for you to go home" might be the thought that it is time for supper, a feeling of rejection brought about by the thought that you are not wanted at the place you are, etc.
