Answer:

Suffered

Explanation:

Words have two types of meaning

  • Denotation - their literal meaning;
  • Connotation - an emotional or cultural association they carry.

Depending on the type of emotion a word evokes in a person, its connotation can be negative, neutral, or positive.

The words <em>most, property, </em>and <em>exclaimed </em>are neutral. <em>Suffered</em> is the only one that has a negative connotation. When someone suffers (something), we know that something bad happened to them.

The designer dressed them in black and teal costumes . Determine the case and function of the underlined pronoun
malfutka [58]

Even though you didn't underline anything, there is only one pronoun in this sentence - the word them.

The case of this pronoun is objective - it functions as an object in the sentence. It is really easy to determine this - all you have to do is ask the questions <em>whom </em>or <em>what. Whom did the designer dress in black and teal costumes? </em>And the answer is - <em>Them. </em>

This way you know that the pronoun is also the object; to be more specific, it is a direct object.

Therefore, the correct answers are case: objective; function: direct object.

"I write good music with an exclamation point"! Declared composor Richard Wagner.
quester [9]

Answer:

"I write good music with an exclamation point!" declared composer Richard Wagner.

Explanation:

There are two mistakes in the original sentence:

"I write good music with an exclamation point"! Declared composer Richard Wagner.

<u>The first mistake concerns punctuation. The exclamation point belongs to the sentence inside the quotations marks. Thus, it too should be placed within those marks.</u>

<u>The second mistake concerns the capitalization of "Declared". There is no reason to capitalize it, since it comes after the direct speech.</u>

Corrected, the sentence will look like this:

"I write good music with an exclamation point!" declared composer Richard Wagner.
