Mostly context helps... but with diction; if Bruce says I have poor diction, he means I am slurring. I take it as an insult to my vocabulary. And with many people, if they use a definition I don't know, I often just assume they used the word wrong, but now I'm questioning how often they're right and I just don't know there's a second definition for a word I know...self doubt! eeek!
Now I'm picturing someone with a bunch of ash dumped on their head. :P
