Question

He was a huge man in a bright red robe (bright as holly berries) with a hood that had fur inside it and a great white beard that fell like a foamy waterfall over his chest.…

Now that the children actually stood looking at him… he was so big, so glad, and so real, that they all became quite still. They felt very glad, but also solemn.
“I’ve come at last,” said he. “She has kept me out for a long time, but I have got in at last. Aslan is on the move. The witch’s magic is weakening.”
And Lucy felt that deep shiver of gladness that you only get if you are being solemn and still.

Answer: Some Words You May Not Know

Explanation: "Solemn" is a bit uncommon. To find out what it means, you should use context clues (using words that relate to it to figure out what it means). You can note that the children are still, that it is a serious moment. Also, it says "They felt very glad, but also solemn." When the word 'but' is being used, it usually means that the next thing stated will be the opposite.

Glad, but (opposite)

Using these clues, we can determine that the word solemn means serious and sad. You can use context clues like this to help you understand what other words mean, too.

Hope this helps!
