And with that I’ll leave you with some vocab from Unit 6.

Castigate - v. to punish severely

Disabuse - v. to free from deception or error

Ennui - n. weariness from lack of interest, boredom

Megalomania - n. a delusion marked by a feeling of power or wealth

Remember the type of diction you use in your writing says a lot about you as a writer and about who your intended audience is. Most of this vocab would be targeted toward a sophisticated, well-educated audience.
