Do you know what a connotation is? Frankly this is a bit annoying and I’m going to be blunt: it’s exceedingly obvious that it’s a difference in connotation (as I’ve said three times now) rather than in definition*. The difference is the context of how the words are used and the associations they have.
That is the difference.
* There are definitional differences too but it doesn’t really matter.
So you still can’t explain what the actual difference is, you just keep saying there is one. End of discussion I guess.
OP stated the difference clearly. I just quoted to you exactly where they said the difference. The definition is essentially the same but they are used and associated in different ways. I do not understand how you are confused or what further explanation you need here.
