The answer is: pitifully.

Pitifully indicates that something or someone is worthy of mercy.

The connotative meaning of a word makes reference to the feelings connected to it. In this case, pitifully has a negative connotation because it stimulates pessimistic or unfavorable emotions.

. When the speaker of "War Is Kind" says, "Do not weep, maiden, for war is kind," what technique is he using to make his point?
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

J. Verbal Irony

Explanation:

War is Kind is a poem by Steven Crane.

The poem begins with the speaker telling a maiden not to weep -

<em>Do not weep, maiden, for war is kind</em>

The technique used here is verbal irony.

Verbal Irony: This is a literary technique that occurs when a speaker says something that contrasts with what he means; his actions and emotions.

Verbal irony was used on the line above.

The speaker is very much aware of the brutality and unkind nature of war but still describes war as a kind phenomenon and tells the maiden not to weep.
