This is distinct from denotation, which is more like the dictionary definition of a word.

这与外延不同，外延更像词的字典定义。

So the connotations are different, even though the denotations are similar.

因此，尽管外延相似，但内涵不同。

Descartes also separated secondary qualities from the basic substance he called extension.

笛卡尔还将次要品质与他称之为外延的基本物质区分开来。

Conceptual Meaning: This refers to the basic denotative or dictionary definition of a word.

概念含义：这指词的基本外延或字典定义。

Philosophers use CONNOTATION, opposite to DENOTATION, to mean the properties of the entity a word denotes.

哲家的 “内涵”（Connotation），跟 “外延”（Denotation）相对，表示词语所指称实体的性质。

So the distinction between " sense" and " reference" here is comparable to that between " connotation" and " denotation."

因而，“涵义” 与 “指称” 的区别类似 “内涵” 与 “外延” 的区别。

It is " denotative" in that it is concerned with the relationship between a word and the thing it denotes, or refers to.

这种意义 “外延” 的，因为它关注词语跟它所指称事物之间的联系。

This is where teachers of English might helpfully note the difference between denotation (dictionary meaning) and connotation (associations that may not be part of a formal definition).

这就英语教师可能会注意到外延(字典意义)和隐含意义(可能不正式定义的一部分的联系)之间的区别的地方。

The force of linguistic relativity is hence greatly reduced if we take into our consideration the issue of language use as well.

丹尼语因为其独特的基本彩语义系统，受到语言界普遍的关注。20 世纪 60 年代，研究者发现，丹尼语中仪有黑白对立两个基本词：modla 表示 “白”，mili 表示 “黑”。依据彩语码进化论的分类标准，丹尼语只有 “黑、白” 两个基本词，所以处于基本彩词语系统的第一个发展阶段（Berlin & Kay， 1969）。由于具备了这样一个特征，丹尼语为语言家提供了一个不可多得的实例，用以验证基本彩词语进化论观点的可靠性。针对丹尼语基本彩词语系统中的特殊现象，结合萨丕尔 — 沃尔夫假说的讨论，我们难免会产生这样一个疑问：丹尼语会采用什么样的方法表示 “黑 — 白” 以外的语义对立，进而展现五彩缤纷的现实世界？20 世纪 70 年代以来的研究表明，丹尼语虽然仅有两个基本词，但相对于其他语言来说，这两个基本词具有更为深厚的内涵和更为宽广的外延。在丹尼语中，modla 和 mili 这两个词语所表达的意思，从语言类型的角度而言，除了表示不同的度对比之外，还形成了调的冷暖对立。换言之，前者可以表示 “白 + 暖” 的语义范畴，后者可以用来指代 “黑 + 冷” 的概念表达，由此构成 “白暖系列” 与 “黑冷系列”（white - warmness VS. black - coldness）这种独特的语义对立。

This idea of the weapon has an extension of the self of channeling inner force rather than relying on external power is distinctly a Shinto in Buddhist conceptualization.

这种兵器观念具有自我引导力的外延，而不依靠外力，这显然佛教概念化中的神道。

For example, the denotation of human is any person such as John and Mary, and its connotation is " biped." " featherless, " " rational, " etc.

例如，人的外延任何人，如约翰和玛丽；内涵 “两足动物”“无羽毛的”“有理性的” 等。

Each word has its own potential for connotation and denotation, and when writers rub one word against the other, they are often rewarded with a sudden insight, an unexpected clarification.

每个词都有其自身的内涵和外延潜力，当作家将一个词与另一个词摩擦时，他们通常会获得突然的洞察力和意想不到的澄清。

They dove into 275 years' worth of research — combing through scientists' observational journals, reading historical texts, and even reaching out to the broader scientific community to see if anyone knew anything about records of abnormal worms.

他们钻研了275年的研究资料——梳理了科家们的观察日记，阅读了历史文本甚至接触了更外延的科团体，询问否有人知道关于反常虫子的任何记录。

A 'mode' is the particular manner which Substance, God, or nature assumes. A flower is a mode of the attribute of extension, and a poem about the same flower is a mode of the attribute of thought.

“模式”物质、上帝或自然所采取的特定方式。一朵花外延属性的一种模式，同一朵花的一首诗思想属性的一种模式。
