No. I prefer shallow and superficial wounds to other types of wounds. In a more clinical sense, you could use either one to refer to, say, a ditch. When applied to a person, they are negative.

What is a negative connotation for the word venerable?

AnswerThe negative connotation for the word vulnerable is that it has a stigma or denotative meaning that suggests that if one is vulnerable they are also: faulty, weak, failures. However, this is not always the case, it sometimes takes a very strong will to be vulnerable.AnswerThe first answer is correct for the word vulnerable; the question was asking for use of the word venerable, which means respectable, revered, honorable, or reputable. Venerable has a positive connotation if the description is a true one; it has a negative connotation if it's being used for someone who only appears to be venerable on the surface and therefor doesn't really deserve the description.

Does the phrasal verb end up always have a negative connotation?

Nope. It can have a positive connotation as well: "I was going to go to the park, but it rained. So, I ended up going to a movie with a friend instead. We had a great time." OR "I studied all night and ended up with an A on the final exam!" Although it often has a negative connotation, it depends on the context of the sentence/intended meaning. As you cans see, both examples began negatively and "end up" was used to offset that and usher in the positive side. In other words, it is used to show contrast, like "however." Contrast, by nature, has a negative connotation. However, the denotative meaning is not necessarily negative. You could go around posting positive examples of its usage in forums, comments, etc. throughout the Internet. It might end up having a more positive connotations then :) Hope that helps!
