Plato Answer:

Some phrases that stand out to me are “not true,” “none of that probably ever happened,” “we need to be more specific,” and “nothing more than an accidental ‘touch’ of zinc.” Based on these phrases, I would describe the author’s diction as straightforward.

Which of the following words has a negative connotation? (10 points)  Discouraging  Freedom  Exhilarated  Bulb
boyakko [2]
The word with a negative connotation is discouraging.

When someone is discouraged, they are dispirited, disheartened, and with a lack of enthusiasm; this has a negative implication.

All other options have positive connotations, except maybe bulb, which is pretty neutral.

I hope this helps you!
