Pitifully


The word 'pitifully' in this excerpt is significant because it tells the reader the narrator's feelings towards the girl getting married. Without that word, there would not be the same level of insight or emotion into the narrator's thoughts. the word 'pitiful' has a negative connotation, if you are feeling pity for someone it means you do not think they should be in the situation they are in and wish you could help get them out of it. This tells the reader that the narrator feels the bride is far too young to be getting married and maybe it's something out of her control or that she is being forced into.

Ahat [919]
<h2><u>Question</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h2>

I understand that i could not rely upon her to get a job done. (change into paasive)

The passive voice always uses the past participle form of the main verb irrespective of any tense.

So the sentence will be- I could not rely upon her to get a job done, I understand.
