Diction and Syntax Diction Definition Diction can be defined as style of speaking or writing, determined by the choice of words by a speaker or a writer. Diction, or choice of words, often separates good writing from bad writing. It depends on a number of factors. Firstly, the word has to be right and accurate. Secondly, words should be appropriate to the context in which they are used. Lastly, the choice of words should be such that the listener or reader understands easily. Proper diction, or proper choice of words, is important to get the message across. On the other hand, the wrong choice of words can easily divert listeners or readers, which results in misinterpretation of the message intended to be conveyed. Types of Diction

The Unknown Citizen
W. H. Auden

Nishat Ahmed THE UNKNOWN CITIZEN 1. Who is the speaker in the poem? Where has he gotten his information about the Citizen? I believe the speaker of this poem is an outside observer and this speaker?s point of view can be characterized as third person limited. I claim that the speaker is not in the poem because the third person pronoun ?he? is used repetitively by the speaker. The point of view of the speaker would best be described as third person limited rather than omniscient because the speaker does not reveal the thoughts and emotions of the citizen. Throughout the poem the speaker only reveals society?s view of the citizen. The speaker learned about the citizen?s perfect record from the Bureau
