Favorite style mappings:
1. Fittingly, the first page of this chapter is written with extremely lowbrow vulgarities. There are nine swear words in less than a paragraph of text. Furthermore, the sentences are long, rambling, and nowhere near grammatically correct. (A scrap of parchment)
2. For example, when she writes “Accompanied the commencement of an enterprise which you have regarded with such evil forebodings” it shows her high diction. (bill963).
3. It is much more connotative in language than Gaiman's selection, the words are used to portray either a negative image of the harsh effects of the elements of nature, or a positive, charismatic image of a simple country boy. (New Zealander
4. While in Neil Gaiman's excerpt from "Stardust" has a low but blunt and familiar language. "Stardust" could also be described as denotative because of it's straight-forwardness and literal characterization. (Case 1)
5. The tone is connotative because it has an emotional feel to it and it describes the poetic and lyrical emotions of young love.( T-Rex)
-I chose these sentences because as I was reading them, they really stuck out to me. The words caught my attention because they were unusual words that I wouldn't use in everyday talk. They were pretty good, mine didn't really make sense but that's okay!
