Which set of words is the most negative in terms of connotative meaning? A.small: thin B.small: petite C.small; little D.small;
maxonik [38]
I would say D. because of how scrawny is a negative word.

An example:
Skinny, thin<span>, and slender</span><span>.  </span><span>These three words all mean having less weight on one's body than what might be considered average.  But the connotations differ since the suggested meanings of </span><span>skinny </span><span>and </span>thin <span>are often more negative than </span>slender<span>, with </span>skinny potentially the most negative of the three<span>.

It is the same for scrawny, thin, petite, and little. </span>
