In the sentence above, if you change the word smell to stench, the
sentence now has a
connotation.
Select one:
Negative

Positive

Answer 1

Negative

Step-by-step explanation:

The word "Stench" has a negative sound and meaning to it.

Answer 2

Negative

Step-by-step explanation:

if you walk into a room and say there is the smell of someone's cooking you think something along the lines of 'yum, i wonder what their cooking but it smells good', whereas, if you walk into a room and say there is the stench of someone's cooking you think something along the lines of 'eww what the heck are they cooking'. stench has a negative connotation because it changes the sentence by making the cooking sound disgusting whereas smell makes the cooking sound fragrant and absolutely delicious.
