Answer 2

The denotation of the word "Accumulate" is: "Collect".

• The meaning of the word "Accumulate" is to gather something little by little over a long period of time.

• The meaning of the word "Collect" is to gather objects as a hobby.

In this case, what is being accumulated is "a lot of extra clothing". Both verbs have a similar meaning but with characteristics of their own.
