Indentify the connotation of the italicized (put them in parentheses) words.

Her language was (aloof) and (distant).

A. positive

B. neutral

C. negative

The connotation of the italicized words, "aloof" and "distant", are negative. Aloof means "not friendly or forthcoming" and distant means " not intimate; cool or reserved." When someone's language is both aloof and distant, this means they are coming across as rude and uninterested. These words do not have positive or neutral definitions, therefore these words are negative.
