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.
Excerpt:


I darkened her eyes with kohl and the years fell away more; She was so pitifully young I could hardly believe she was to be married today.

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.

Peter Van Daan’s motivations/ actions?
Stells [14]

<u>Peter Van Daan’s Motivations/ Actions:</u>

Peter Van Daan is one of the character from the novel ‘The Diary of a Young Girl’ by Anne Frank which depicts the story of the young girl Anne Frank and her family who went into hiding for two years. The story illustrates the horrors of war.

Peter is the son of Van Daan and he is shown as a loner who isn’t quite optimistic and who doesn’t trust of have faith in anything. Anne tries to bring the other side of him, but she realizes that Peter has an inferiority complex.

He mostly acts to benefit himself and he don’t really bother to impress anyone. Peter isn’t really a bold or courageous person, neither in words nor in actions.
