What type of connotation does the word "never" represent?

  1. Positive

  2. Affirmative

  3. Negative

  4. Neutral

The correct answer is: Negative

The word "never" carries a negative connotation because it denotes the absence or total lack of something, suggesting that an event or action will not occur at any point in time. This creates a definitive, often discouraging, impact, often leading to feelings of hopelessness or denial regarding the possibility of a situation. In many contexts, "never" can imply a sense of finality or an unchangeable condition, which aligns with negativity. Other options may suggest neutrality or positivity, but "never" consistently evokes a negative sentiment in everyday language and emotional undertones.
