From your reading of the first 12 chapters of pride and prejudice, what do you notice about austen’s diction, or word choice? how does austen’s use of language affect your comprehension of the text?

For a modern reader, Jane Austen’s diction can feel strange. Although it may well represent the conversational, everyday language of the gentry of her time, it doesn't feel like natural speech to modern-day readers. However, the choice of language can be helpful because it reminds the reader of the time and place of the novel. The quaintness of the narration and of the characters gives a stronger sense of a different type of people and worldview than our own.
