Identify the word in the excerpt that has a connotative meaning and explain, in at least 150 words, the significance of the word

, and whether the meaning holds a positive or a negative emotion.

The connotative word for me is PITIFULLY or pitifully young. This means very young and it refers to the woman in the text.

It would seem that the words used invoked negative emotions because the narrator is saying that the girl is very young to be married. It would seem as though the narrator is questioning the rightness of the bride's decision of getting married at a very young age.

The American has a long-standing love for African birds.
Snowcat [4.5K]
Adjectives are words that describe other words. They often give details about how something feels or looks. They can also give details about where something comes from (the origin of the thing) or how long something lasts or the length of something.

In the sentence "The American had long standing love for African birds", long and African are adjectives because they are describing other words, specifically the nouns in the sentence.

Long describes the length of the American's love. African describes the origin of the birds since they are from Africa. The other words in the sentence are not adjectives.
