Answer: Diction

Explanation: Punctuation and grammar only deal with structure and are completely independent of the choice of words, and lines are simply units of text whose length matters in poetry mainly. Diction (from where the word dictionary comes) is defined as the intentional choice of words to help convey a certain meaning or set a mood in a text.

Which of these words is an endocentric compound?
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

Most compounds in English are endocentric, that is, one of the elements (typically the right-hand element) is the head of the construction. Headedness is shown most clearly by hyponymy: the compound as a whole is a hyponym of its head. For example, traffic-light is a hyponym of light, but not a hyponym of traffic.

Explanation:

Therefore bittersweet would be your endocentric compound. Because something can't be bitter while being sweet.
