Denotation is correct!

<p>I disagree about the nuance one. I think the answer was denotation. Sure denotation means "meaning", but it also means something that hints or reveals a trait about someone or something. Look at what Marriam-Webster has to say:</p>

<p>Denotation: 1: an act or process of denoting</p>

<p>And denoting redirects to:
Denote:
1: to serve as an indication of : betoken <the swollen="" bellies="" that="" denote="" starvation="">
2: to serve as an arbitrary mark for <red flares="" denoting="" danger="">
3: to make known : announce <his crestfallen="" look="" denoted="" his="" distress=""></his></red></the></p>

<p>So I don't care what everyone says, if the CollegeBoard marks that one incorrect (I have QAS), I'm gonna sue them!!!!</p>

<p>unless denotation is an exp section, denotation should be correct…</p>

3

<p>sorry but it’s nuance, denotation means definition</p>

<ol>
<li>magnanimous talked about the person being generous.</li>
<li>The cosmopolitan one talked about the woman working in several parts of the world, not just Spain.</li>
</ol>

<p>Lol? Denotation? This is a joke right?</p>

8

<p>It’s nuance, give it up</p>

9

<p>It’s nuance. The sentence was talking about how the woman’s voice or whatever had different SHADES of emotion, blah blah blah. That’s what clued me.</p>

10

<p>whats the question?</p>

11

<p>It is nuance you arrogant moron. But go ahead, reagardless of how obvious that fact is, remain in denial. Keep telling yourself that it was actually denotation, and that you will receive an 800 in reading. Not just that, tell yourself you’re going to get a 2400. That way you’ll be super happy when the real scores come back!</p>

12

<p>^ Why are you being such a jerk to him? Who cares if he thinks it wasn’t nuance. Honestly.</p>

13

<p>the OCT SAT is tearing our community apart. Damn ETS- they are the devil.</p>

14

<p>it just annoys me when kids are overconfident after they finish their SATs. People like Uttaresh are just setting themselves up for failure and disappointment. Look, if you think about it, what is the point of PROCLAIMING you did well before you get your scores back. Two things can happen from that point: you get your scores back and they were as high as you predicted (not likely). In this case people thought you were an ass before, and they still will. Or your scores will be lower and you will be very disappointed, and people will think you’re an ass.</p>

<p>My suggestion: dont be overconfident and presumptuous. No one benefits in any way from that attitude. Hope for the best, but be humble and patient.</p>

15

<p>Go ahead and sue. You’re not gonna get anything.</p>

<p>Tell me, exactly how do the Merriam-Webster definitions fit into the sentence? I bet you can’t explain.</p>

16

<p>Agreed^ . Arguing won’t change your score. I guess Its just hard for some people to accept the fact that they’re wrong.</p>

17

<p>hahaha Uttaresh has been all over this forum making arrogant assertions about the SAT. Im not only referring to this post. Hey, I think I gave decently sound advice; sometimes people need to hear the truth in order to progress and mature as individuals. And I dont have anything against uttaresh, I was making a more general point because there are A LOT of kids with that same attitude.</p>

18

<p>Can anyone write the actual question? B/c I can’t remember what it was, and I do remember that I put down denotation.</p>

19

<p>^lol, holy crap uttaresh. I hope you don’t get banned for that one. That was pretty harsh o.o…</p>

<p>He started it. :mad:</p>
