Which of the following words meaning "clever" has a negative connotation? a. shrewd b. witty c. ingenious d. devious

I would vote for D. Devious

Explanation:

A negative connotation is a bad feeling you get when you hear a certain word. Although I'm unsure, most people get bad feeling about someone if they are said to be devious. While C. Ingenious (which was the first answer) would be a positive connotation. If a negative Connotation gives off a bad feeling on someone then a positive connotation would be the opposite.? In addition, Ingenious is often associated with someone being incredibly smart or you just came up with the "ingenious" plan to sneak food at 2AM.

I hope this helped.
