Answer 1

I think you mean the word inflexion which means...

The act of inflecting or the state of being inflected.

Alteration in pitch or tone of the voice.

Changing the tone can make a phrase mean different things. Such as the phrase Oh Baby. Said one way, it indicates happiness, but with a different inflexion it can indicate sadness.

If you were only given a choice of the words you listed, connotation would be the closest. it means.


Something, such as a feeling, thought, or idea, associated in one's mind or imagination with a specific person or thing: association, connection, suggestion. See suggest
That which is signified by a word or expression: acceptation, denotation, import, intent, meaning, message, purport, sense, significance, significancy, signification, value.

Answer 2

disposition?
