6 0

Answer:

These actions are capable of evoking or leaving unpleasant feelings, ideas

Explanation:

A connotation here means the feelings that these actions create in addition to their true denotations.

A negative connotation can leave negative emotions and ideas for instance hesitations, filled pauses could be mistaken for fear, reluctance during conversations. Filled pauses could be because the speaker is thinking but this can be misinterpreted to be something else.

Calcium is essential for strong bones and teeth. what kind of phrase is the bolded words?
Marta_Voda [28]

Assuming the bolded words are: <em>"for strong bones and teeth"</em> and that you had to choose between:

  1. <em>noun phrase</em>
  2. <em>adverb phrase</em>
  3. <em>verb phrase</em>
  4. <em>adjective phrase</em>

It is an adjective phrase (4).

An adjective phrase is a group of words complementing, specifying, or modifying a 'head' adjective in the sentence. It is called an adjective (or adjectival) phrase because the whole group of words functions as an adjective, which means it provides information about a noun.

Here, the adjective phrase "for strong bones and teeth" is specifying the head adjective "essential." It is functioning as an adjective for the noun "calcium" by giving us information about it.
