Poe is famous for his use of descriptive language. Make a list of at least five words that you reacted to from what you have read so far. Write the word and write a brief description of the feeling or idea the word inspired in you.( the fall house of usher)

oppressively: this adverb is used to refer to the clouds. It made fell feel, along with the rest of the passage, suffocated, as if the world was caving in.

hideous: this adjective appears in a passage in which the narrator describes the house, connecting its appearance to a feeling of depression like the one cause by opium. It inspired fear in me, a sense that something bad will take place in that house.

encrimsoned: this adjective is used to describe the light that shines in through the windows of what will be the narrator's room. It made me nervous. A light of reddish color would seem strange, unnatural, somewhat apocalyptic.

cadaverousness: this noun is used to describe Usher's complexion. It is quite scary and surprising to think someone can look like a cadaver, a dead body.

ghastly: the narrator uses this adjective again to talk of Usher's appearance, his skin's "hue". It conveys the idea that Usher looks terrifying, macabre.

Explanation:
