Denotement

/dɛˈnoʊtmənt/ noun

Definition

The act or process of denoting; the way in which something indicates or refers to something else.

Etymology

From denote + -ment (suffix forming nouns of action or state). This is an archaic or rare term that parallels 'denotation' but emphasizes the active process of marking or indicating.

Kelly Says

This is one of those lovely old words that linguists and philosophers occasionally dust off—it's not common, but 'denotement' specifically captures the *action* of pointing at meaning rather than the meaning itself.
