The word "discussion" could best replace the word "debate" in the sentence and the most positive connotation of  "discussion" is "conversation".

Connotation

Any given word or phrase contains a connotation in addition to its denotation, which is its explicit or literal meaning. A connotation is a generally accepted cultural or emotional relationship.

Regarding its pleasant or unpleasant emotional link, a connotation is typically classified as either positive or negative.

Strong-willed and pig-headed are two adjectives that can be used to describe someone who is stubborn; both have the same literal meaning (stubborn), but strong-willed conveys admiration for how strong someone's will is (a positive connotation), while pig-headed conveys frustration when dealing with someone (a negative connotation).

Connotation has a variety of meanings that branch out from one another. Connotation basically refers to how anything may be connected to a word or phrase, such as an implicit judgment, value, or emotion.

According to benvolio who started the fight
Gre4nikov [31]
This is what Benvolio says (talking to Montague).

"Here were the servants of your adversary,
And yours, close fighting ere I did approach:
I drew to part them: in the instant came
The fiery Tybalt, with his sword prepared,
Which, as he breathed defiance to my ears,
He swung about his head and cut the winds,
Who nothing hurt withal hiss'd him in scorn:
While we were interchanging thrusts and blows,
Came more and more and fought on part and part,
Till the prince came, who parted either part".

What actually happened was that Sampson and Gregory (Capulet servants) intended to provoke some of Montague's men into a fight. With Sampson biting his thumb, a verbal argument soon escalates into a fight between the parties. Benvolio then comes along sees the fight and tries to stop it by beating down their swords, using his own to do so. Tybalt then comes along and seeing Benvolio with a drawn sword, attacks. The fight then escalates further with the general citizenry joining in.

Therefore doing a quick precis of Benvolio's words - I saw your servants and those of your adversary (Capulet) fighting. I drew my sword to try and stop them. At that very moment, Tybalt appeared and seeing my drawn sword attacked. I asked him to cease, but he defied this request and wouldn't stop, expessing scorn for Montagues. We were skirmishing, and then more and more of the general citizens joined in, escalating a small disturbance into a major melee until the prince stepped in and stopped it..

Read the passage and answer the question
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

the thing that happens next is when she drops in the water she is going to go look for her friend turtle. i know this because in the story it said "all I want to do is drop in the water with my snorkel and fins and go. but we have to listen to the captain again, even though had heard him three days in a row already" this part of the story shows that she cannot wait to drop in the water and go see her turtle friend. so that is how I know that the next thing that is going to happen in the story is that she is going to go after the turtle.
