Re: Should a book contain words that are challenging to readers?
I agree, some challenging words are not an issue. What is an issue though is when an author, or speaker uses complex or obscure words where a simpler, more commonplace word would suffice. There is nothing clever in it, only their ego showing.

A book must contain challenging words for the reader.
Books are not only made for lieusure time reading or fun.
They actually must contain challenging word.
These words improve the readers vocabulary.
Readers get to know their meaning and also they learn something new.
It's a must for a book to have challenging words.
This also helps the people to have enrichment in the language.
