    Another impressive one from Coach Sam!
    1. Diction is a writer or speaker's word choice that helps define the written or spoken word and expresses personal style.
    2. It is important for you to remember your audience when choosing an appropriate style.
    3. You must consider the settings before you speak by looking around and ensure to answer the following questions in your mind before communicating:
    a) Are you in the midst of your friends?
    b) Are you amid your colleagues, boss, superior etc.
    Thereafter, communicate according to the dictation which fits the setting i.e. your answers to the questions above.
    Thank you once again, Coach.
    The video is an eye opener.

    Thank you so much Ma. Now, I know the actual meaning of diction in its real sense both in vocal expression and literature. Now, I understand that the use of a specific choice of words to convey a message is called diction. This video also brought to the consciousness that formal diction is a kind of writing that establishes a professional tone while informal diction is a friendly writing style (that is, in informal diction, there is a relaxed tone). Lastly, I learnt that the use of diction requires the kind of setting we are before speaking.

    I learnt to avoid the use of contractions in a formal writing.
    And I also had to find out the synonym of the word "amid", that is, AMIDST and meaning "in the middle of..."
