Accepted Answer

A political boss might not want to be called "boss" because of the negative connotations. Nevertheless, the word “amateur” does carry a connotation that the person concerned is not fully integrated into the scientific community and, in particular, may not fully share its values. 1[N-COUNT 可数名词](词或名字的)内涵意义，隐含意义，联想意义 The connotations of a particular word or name are the ideas or qualities which it makes you think of.   [usu with supp]It's just one of those words that's got so many negative connotations...这只是那种有太多负面含义的词之一。'Urchin', with its connotation of mischievousness, may not be a particularly apt word. urchin有淘气的含义，可能不是一个特别恰当的词。
