Answer the following questions. Your answers should be clear and short.What are the three areas to account for the difference between synonyms? Illustrate your points.
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SYNONYMS BOIL DOWN TO THREE AREAS: DENOTATION, CONNOTATION AND APPLICATION. (IF ANY EXAMPLE BELOW IS MENTIONED, WILL GET ONE POINT.)
(EXAMPLE 1: DIFFERENCE IN DENOTATION: SYNONYMS MAY DIFFER IN DEGREE OF INTENSITY, TAKE RICH AND WEALTHY FOR EXAMPLE. A RICH MAN AND A WEALTHY LADY ARE BOTH RICH, BUT THE WEALTHY LADY IS FELT TO POSSESS MORE MONEY AND PROPERTY THAN A RICH MAN. 
EXAMPLE 2: DIFFERENCE IN CONNOTATION: BY CONNOTATION WE MEAN THE STYLISTIC AND EMOTIVE COLOURING OF WORDS. ASK IS STYLISTICALLY NEUTRAL, BEG IS OFTEN USED IN CONVERSATIONS AND REQUEST IS QUITE FORMAL IN STYLE.
EXAMPLE 3: DIFFERENCE IN APPLICATION: MANY WORDS ARE SYNONYMOUS IN MEANING BUT DIFFERENT IN USAGE IN SIMPLE TERMS. ALLOW AND LET ARE SYNONYMS, BUT WE ALLOW SB. TO DO STH. AND LET SB. DO STH.)
