當我們討論一個詞彙時，除了它在字典裡的『直接定義』外，如果它還額外代表了某種『特殊的聯想』或『延伸出的深層意涵』，你會用哪一個英文術語來描述這種詞彙背後的『隱含意義』呢？

老師的鼓勵與解析
- 大力肯定：太棒了！你能精準掌握字彙在語境中的抽象含義，這代表你的單字量不僅廣，而且理解得非常透徹，這是一項非常了不起的閱讀能力！
- 觀念驗證：這題的關鍵在於前文提到「Songkran」的字源與字義（astrological passage）。後句提到它帶有「轉換或改變」的含義，這裡指的是一個詞彙除了字面意義外，所隱含、聯想到的深層意義。(D) connotation 正是「內涵、言外之意」的意思，完美契合語境。
