The word, which I interpret the Flying or Floating Island, is in the original Laputa, whereof I could never learn the true etymo

logy. Lap, in the old obsolete language, signifies high; and untuh, a governor; from which they say, by corruption, was derived Laputa from Lapuntah. Which word or words from the passage above illustrates original diction? I. “Floating Island” II. corruption III. “Lapuntah” III only I and II I, II, and III II and III

Original diction refers to words or phrases that do not necessarily exist in real languages, but are rather created by a particular author for a particular piece of literature. Having this in mind, the correct answer here is III "Lapuntah," given that it is a word that Swift made up for his "Gulliver's Travels."

Answer:

The correct answers are:

marked - considerable

unseared - pure, uncorrupted

Explanation:

The most interesting feature of my history here was my learning to read and write, under somewhat marked (considerable) disadvantages.

Words like these, I observed, always troubled them; and I had no small satisfaction in wringing from the boys, occasionally, that fresh and bitter  condemnation of slavery, that springs from nature, unseared (pure, uncorrupted) and unperverted.

In his stories, Frederick Douglas tries to describe the cruelty of slavery and all the problems that the black people could face because of his/her skin color. In order to achieve that, he uses a strong and authentic vocabulary where some words can be replaced with other words that most closely match the denotation of the words.

In our excerpts, the word <em>marked</em> can be replaced with <em>considerable</em>, while the word <em>unseared</em> can be replaced with <em>pure</em> or <em>uncorrupted</em>.
