Depending on the part of speech, when using platoon as a noun it would be defined as a subdivision of a company of soldiers. When using platoon in it's verb form it would be defined as athelets on the same team rotating through the same position. Hope this helps :)

Platoon means a group of people or things that work together under a leader.

Examples can be:

A platoon of soldiers, which has ~16 - 50 soldiers

A platoon of tanks, which has ~4 - 9 tanks

etc.

hope this helps

Which words in this excerpt from "The Raven" by Edgar Allan Poe create an ominous and spooky atmosphere?
andrew11 [14]
Words such as 'bleak', 'dying', 'wrought', 'ghost', and 'sorrow' create an ominous and spooky atmosphere in "The Raven". These words have negative connotations, meaning that the words sound dark and frightening to the reader. For instance, if you wanted to create a spooky atmosphere in the following sentence, you might replace the verb with another word that has a more negative connotation.

A chill passed through the room.
A chill crept across the room.

While both sentences mean essentially the same thing, the second sentence sounds scarier because the verb has a more negative connotation.

Hope this helps!
