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."

What is your stand between Brutus and Caesar?
mezya [45]
Both sides have valid points and arguments. Brutus did betray his friend by participating in the plot, but he did it for a greater good according to what he and the group believed was the greater good. On the other hand, Caesar was a tyrant and wanted to rule with an iron fist, which is what bothered people. So Brutus was indeed a traitor, having betrayed Caesar, but he was also a savior because he saved the people from Caesar.
