Explanation:

Diction refers to the choice of words that an author makes in a work of literature. These words create the tone, and allow the reader to know whether the work is formal or informal. It can also influence how the readers think of the characters. Effective diction is necessary if an author wants to convey the right tone and purpose of the work.
