What is a connotation?
A word often had two meanings: its denotation refers to its dictionary meaning. But its connotation is the understood or implied meaning of the word, containing the emotions and beliefs that the word makes people think. The connotation is often the cultural meaning: for example, in American culture, the word "fat" is defined in the dictionary as overweight or obese. But its connotation is very negative; American culture is obsessed with being thin, so "fat" has a negative connotation.
What does denotation mean?
Denotation is when you use the definitions found in the dictionary. These definitions are generally neutral, and don't tell you much more than that. Connotation involves carefully considering the use of the word in a sensitive manner so that others (cultures, people, etc.) are not harmed by your words; the connotation involves the emotions the word brings up in that culture. For example: take the word "fat." The dictionary meaning, the denotation, is "overweight." But in our culture, if I said someone was fat, that might hurt their feelings or get them upset, because our culture values being thin. All words have a denotation. But many words also have a certain connotation to them, based on whether the culture gives them a positive or a negative meaning.

Are there specific words that may have a vulgar or slang connotation that are used regularly in American culture that should be avoided?
There are a bunch of sayings that are racist, but they still get used. For example, and I mean NO disrespect to anyone, the phrase; I "jewed" him down to get the price I wanted. That's disrespectful to Jews, but it means the Jews are good with money or negotiating. There are a lot of these sayings we use everyday and don't even think twice using them. Calling someone a "Retard", even saying it in fun, is not fun at all for people with a Mental Disability or to their parents. And spelling Gay as Ghay is just someone not saying the word and hiding behind their keyboard. Calling an inanimate object "Ghay" or "Gay" is an immature person who probably doesn't even know what it means. English is a tough language unlike other languages that use one word to mean several things. The English language on the other hand, have lots of words that mean different things depending how you use them. It seems we need to explain everything and every word. It's a very confusing language to understand and one of the hardest to learn.........
