Suppose that FUTILE waiting was the sorrowful background music of our impoverished little community when I was young. Use context to determine the meaning of the word futile as it is used in “Marigolds.” Write your definition of futile here and explain which details from the text helped you determine its meaning.

The meaning of the word Futile means pointless or fruitless.

Explanation:

"Marigold" depicts the narrative of a young woman who recalls her days as a girl through adolescence into adulthood with many of those years spent under the burden of slavery.

The sentence which holds the word futile is found in the first three lines of the third paragraph.

As the reader goes on, they'd find that the writer narrates [in paragraph 3, sentence 5] how though it was fruitless to hope or wait for poverty, suffering and hunger to abate, it still was required for one to cling to that hope in order to survive the following day.

Cheers.
