Select a word that is used in a primary connotative way

English
1 answer:
Burka [1]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

C. crashed

Explanation:

Each word has two types of meaning:

  • Denotation - its literal meaning;
  • Connotation - the emotional or cultural association it carries.

Words <em>dinner, invited, </em>and<em> turkey</em> are used in their primary, literal meaning. The only word that is used somewhat figuratively is <em>crashed</em>. The primary meaning of the verb<em> to crash</em> is <em>to break or fall to pieces with noise</em> or <em>to collide, especially violently and noisily </em>(when we talk about moving vehicles, objects, etc.). Here, it means <em>to go somewhere you are not invited</em>. It's not a positive concept. That's why option C is the correct one.

What are some examples of the use of figurative language in “Tribute to a Dog”? What is the impact of figurative words and phras
Yuliya22 [10]
Figurative language is one of the most important elements of any literary texts. It's like the spice and seasoning of a dish, it gives taste to it. 

"A Tribute to a Dog" is a speech made by Senator George Graham Vest as his closing argument for his client's dog shot and killed by his neighbor. Some examples of the figurative language used in the text are the following: <span>
   ♣ </span>He will sleep on the cold ground, where the wintry winds blow and the snow drives fiercely, if only he may be near his master’s side. <span>(Personification) 
   ♣ </span><span>The one absolutely unselfish friend that a man can have in this selfish world, the one that never deserts him and the one that never proves ungrateful or treacherous is his dog.</span><span>  (Personification) 
   ♣ </span>A man’s dog stands by him in prosperity and in poverty, in health and in sickness (Hyperbole)
   ♣ <span>He guards the sleep of his pauper master as if he were a prince. (Metaphor) 
   ♣ H</span><span>e is as constant in his love as the sun in its journey to the heavens. (Simile) 
These are just a few of the figurative languages used in the text, there' still more.  But these ones give more impact to the whole text. It makes it more convincing and meaningful. For sure because of this speech, his side won the case. </span>
