Question

Can someone help me understand what neutral tone is in works of literature?

Answer 1

Tone

Tone is the author’s attitude toward a subject. While journalistic writing theoretically has a tone of distance and objectivity, all other writing can have various tones.

If we were to read a description of a first date that included words and phrases like “dreaded” and “my buddies forced me to go on the date”, we could assume that the individual didn’t really enjoy the date.

Answer 2

Mood

Mood is the atmosphere of a piece of writing; it’s the emotions a selection arouses in a reader

Answer 3

Alright so how can you tell if something is neutral tone?
