Answer:

Connotatively.

Explanation:

When a word is said to be used connotatively, then it means that the implied meaning is being used, while when a word is used denotatively, then this means that the direct meaning of the word is used.

With this in mind, the word "ugly" is being used to describe her personality and this is an implied or emotional meaning that is not literal.

Therefore, the correct answer is that the word "ugly" as used in the context is used connotatively
