    Prolonged definition:

    Cambridge : continuing for a long time.

    Oxford: continuing for a long time or longer than usual; lengthy.

    For example,

    1. prescription drugs are known to have harmful side effects. What are some good examples? With proper

    2. care enhanced battery can be ensured. (negative connotation) (Remote Optical device) (Positive connotation)

    Its evident that “Prolonged” is an adjective that is used to define the long duration of something irrespective of the positive/negative meaning of the context.

    What is the correct way to use “long relationship”?

    If you have an Alzheimer’s, this is not the best option, as you may be thinking that a long term disability is not the best option. As suggested by Kris, you may go for sustained, lasting, long lasting etc.

    If you’re on an average 10000 sph diet then go for sustained, lasting, etc.

    Definitions from TFD :

    Refuse: To indicate unwillingness to do, accept, give, or allow

    Reject: To refuse to accept, submit to, believe or make use of.

    To indicate polite refusal. Decline: To express polite refusal.

    Are all synonyms? If given a specific meaning to accepting, receiving, or examining something, how

    is it used in synonyms?

    Refus usually implies determination and sometimes brusqueness: “The commander… I don’t talk about questions of right” ‘(George Bancroft) I’ll make him an offer he can’t refuse” (Mario Puzo).

    To decline is to refuse courteously: “I declined election to the National Institute of Arts and Letters… “And now I must decline the Pulitzer Prize” (Sinclair Lewis)

    What’s the meaning of rejection, the discarding of something… or something as defective or useless, it implies categoric refusal: “He again offered himself for enlistment and was again rejected” (Arthur S.M. Hutchinson).

    If I have to put the difference in my words I would say:

    Refusal usually implies determination and may or may not result in the final action.

    Eg.

    Still forced to join group.

    Could a decision to reject or decline be considered as a result of refusal or refusal.

    Rejection is often blunt while decline implies polite act of refusal.

    What is the difference? How is it explained with the sentence by sentence?

    If the girl was polite that she would accept the offer but refused. What if she didn’t listen to the guy? If she threw vodka on the guy’s face then she rejected. What was her reaction? (wink wink)
