What should an author look at when considering particular word choice?

  1. Precision

  2. Complexity

  3. Brevity

  4. Allegory

The correct answer is: Precision

An author should look at precision when considering particular word choice, because it is important to use accurate and exact language in order to effectively convey the intended meaning and avoid any confusion or misinterpretation by the reader. While complexity and allegory may also play a role in word choice, they are not the main focus. Brevity, on the other hand, may be important for concise writing, but it should not take precedence over precision.
