Answer from: Yumimiku6539

B. Inspire.

Further Explanation:

Roosevelt’s speech uses diction, which reveals his distinct choice of words in the speech. His unique sense of expression brings out the tone of his message in an apt manner. The unique choice of words brings out the writer’s specific literary style. The diction does not remain limited to merely a choice of words, but also to the effectiveness of imparting the importance and meaning of every word. The style of pronunciation used in diction also regulates the tone and mood of the speech. The speech has to be delivered in such a manner that the audience is able to understand and fully intercept the message that would be imparted through the speech. The other terms through which diction is expressed is termed as enunciation and articulation. Note that in this speech, Roosevelt emphasizes the word ‘Nation’ which is an important part of diction as it emphasizes the text through a careful repetition of the word. In his speech, he tries to make the audience understand the importance of the nation, and the great role played by the citizens to ensure the greatness of the nation. The nation is an established institution, giving identity to its citizens, and protection with resources to survive. The citizens of the nation play a great role in maintaining the greatness of the nation. Thus the main objective of Roosevelt’s speech is to consolidate the citizens’ faith in the Greatness of America so that they would be inspired to continue to contribute to the hard times that the country was going through.
