Diction and figurative language can impact an author's tone and characterization because they can make the story seem more real if everything is working well together, or they can keep the reader from connecting to the work if the choice of words and use of language clashes with the tone the author is trying to convey.

puteri [66]

Answer:

The focus of the book is what is now known as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Over time, the author explains how soldiers' stress and demand for aid have evolved. They use the word "shell shock" as an illustration of how the term came to be used. Compared to the names it was afterwards referred to, the author feels this two-syllable phrase was simpler and more straightforward. "The pain is completely buried under jargon," it is said. I'll bet if they had still been calling it "shell shock," some of those Vietnam veterans might have received the attention they needed. Authors argue that troops were better served by the original word, shell shock, since it didn't have a long phrase and many more syllables. When a soldier is "on the edge of a nervous collapse," he or she is said to be on the verge of a nervous breakdown.

Explanation:

Write in your own words to avoid plagiarism. (teachers are smart)
