If a reader were to examine the vocabulary used in the novel, he<br> or she would be analyzing what?
Ahat [919]

Answer:

The answer is that the reader would be analyzing the <u>diction</u> of a novel.

Explanation:

Diction refers to the linguistic choices a writer makes to effectively convey an idea, a point of view, or tell a story. The utilization of diction is the careful selection of words to communicate a message or establish a particular voice or writing style. For example, flowy, figurative language creates colorful prose, while a more formal vocabulary with concise and direct language can help a main point to come across as clear and precise.    

Writers use diction in order to choose specific words and phrases depending on the outcome they’re trying to achieve. Diction can:  

  • Create a certain tone that supports purpose. The purpose of a piece of writing determines its diction. In literature and fiction writing, writers often use informal diction and figures of speech—words used for non-literal meanings, like similes and metaphors. If a scientist is publishing a paper on their research, however, the language will be technical, concise, and formal, written for a specific audience.
  • Support the setting. In fiction writing, the language an author uses supports the basic story elements, like setting. Diction helps establish when and where a story is set by using language native to that time and place, which is called colloquial diction. For example, a story set in New York City will have a different style of language compared to a story that takes place in London.
  • Establish a narrative voice and tone. A writer’s attitude towards the subject of a story comes through in the words used throughout the story. This helps establish tone and impacts a reader's emotional response. For instance, the tone of a horror novel will be very different to that of a romance novel.
  • Bring characters to life. A writer can tell a reader a lot about characters through their dialogue. The way a character uses diction reflects personal details like age and gender, background, social setting, and profession.

What is the result of an unclear thesis?
Harman [31]
A thesis statement is generally the first few sentences of your writing to help get your readers interested in what they'll be reading. So, if your thesis is unclear, they'll be confused about what's going on before anything even happens.
