Question

wiesel describes one of the prisoners as emaciated. what did the prisoner look like?

Answer 1

The prisoner Wiesel described as emaciated appeared to be very thin and skinny. Moreover, the prisoner also looked as if he had been deprived of food for a long time. He had the looks of someone who was suffering from illness or starvation. The thin and skinny build was due to starvation and was not his general physique.

Answer 2

Here the prisoners are described as emanciated.

The meaning of this word emanciated is weak or thin, like someone is not having food and has become energyless.

So Weisel says that all the prisoners have become weak and thin.

The synonyms of the word emanciated are skeltal and body.
