Connotation

Abstract: C2B is a consumer driven e-commerce application. To promote the application and research of C2B e-commerce, this paper combs the concept of C2B according to the relevant literature research, through the comparative analysis of the decision relationship between B2C and C2B, discusses the essential connotation of C2B electronic commerce, and analyzes the C2B conceptual misunderstanding existing in the application of e-commerce combined with practical cases. On this basis, the C2B application platform and the main bottlenecks that may exist in the application of electronic commerce are discussed. Finally, the solution strategy of C2B application bottleneck and the future trend of C2B application are discussed.

Abstract: The adjective ‘Lutheran’ is a conventional label in Pauline studies with a highly negative connotation. However, its conventional usage appears to have broadened, now with different meanings in different authors and different modes of reference that are inconsistently used, ranging from ‘of Luther’ to ‘Lutheran’ to ‘like-Lutherans’ to ‘traditionalist’. The present study surveys the label’s use in Pauline studies and evaluates potential criteria for its predication. It ultimately suggests guidelines for future use, both in the interest of academic clarity and out of fairness to the living tradition that bears this name.

Abstract: One current doctrine regarding lexical-semantic functions asserts separate input and output lexicons with access to a central semantic core. In other words, processes related to word form have separate representations for input (comprehension) vs. output (expression), while processes related to meaning are not split along the input-output dimension. Recent evidence from our laboratory suggests that semantic processes related to emotional connotation may be an exception to this rule. The ability to distinguish among different emotional connotations may be linked distinctly both to attention systems that select specific sensory input for further processing and to intention systems that select specific actions for output. In particular, the neuroanatomic substrates for emotional connotation on the input side of the equation appear to differ from the substrates on the output side of the equation. Implications for semantic processing of emotional connotation and its relationship to attention and motivation systems are discussed.
