ug them hard and after scandal them: or if you know that i profess myself in banqueting to all the rout: then hold me dangerous. [flourish, and shout] which statement best explains why shakespeare has cassius use the word fawn rather than a synonym such as flatter to describe his actions? fawn is more negative, suggesting manipulation of another for personal gain. fawn is a comparison to a deer and therefore creates a weak image. flatter is the more negative word, and cassius wishes to be kind in his description. flatter is used throughout the play as a compliment, and cassius would not brag about his own abilities.

Shakespeare has used the word fawn rather than a synonym such as a flatter to describe his actions because fawn is more negative, suggesting manipulation of another for personal gain.

<h3>What is the use of synonym words? </h3>

The word fawn implies a young deer that represent immaturity. It means it could be used to express the pessimistic manipulative behavior of a person.

However, flatter is giving a positive perspective that arises from a praising scenario.

Thus, it fawn word is more appropriate to show how Cassius is <u>influencing</u> Brutus for his personal gain.
