The word with a connotative meaning is "Courageous" since the word doesn't have a literal or direct meaning and its definition relies more on emotion.

Answer:

transparent

Explanation:

The connotative meaning of a word refers to the feelings and ideas associated with it, or the secondary meaning of the word rather than the literal or explicit one, called denotative.

Therefore, the denotative meaning of the word transparent has to do with allowing light to pass through so that objects behind can be distinctly seen. However, <u>its connotative meaning is obvious, understandable, candid and honest.</u>

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

"Helmuth is three." "Hans is eight." "Gerhard, who is seven."

Explanation:

This question is about "The Boy who dared"

The above selected phrase shows that there is a certain difference in Helmuth's age in relation to his brothers. This age difference shows the difference in maturity between them, as it is common that the younger the immature, since maturity is gained with experience and experience is gained with experience.

Helmuth is five years younger than Hans, who shows him that Hans is more mature. While Hans and Gerhard are only a year apart, it is likely that Hans is more mature, as he is older.
