An author might choose precise words over vague words because the author could want the reader to visualize the writing. The reader could be confused and visualize something else entirely if the author uses vague words. A good example is if the writer is writing instructions, he/she would need to be very specific. Another example is if the writer is composing a poem, it would be best if he/she uses precise words of what they're describing. Ex., Vague: The flower is pretty. Precise: The pink tulip bloomed beautifully.

Penn commits a tort while acting in the interest of her undisclosed principal. Who is responsible or liable? Principal and agent
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

Principal Only.

Explanation:

The word 'tort' is borrowed from Latin word 'tortum' which means 'wrong, or injustice.' Thus, the word tort means to cause an injury or harm to someone or someone's property.

Tort is committed in many ways. <u>'Agency Relationship Liability Tort'</u> is the type of tort in which a principal and an agent is required. In such torts, a principal will be held responsible directly in cases when he fails to supervise his agent, when he directly commands his agent to commit tort, or when he neglects to check the background of the agent while hiring.

<u>In the given case, the unnamed principal will be held directly responsible for guiding Penn to commit tort. Because Penn committed tort in the interest of her undisclosed principal</u>.

Thus the correct answer is 'Principal Only.'
