3	சமஸ்காரக்ரம சம்பந்நம்	:	Impeccable grammar
4	ந கிஞ்சித் அப ஷப்திதம்	:	The words used were with care and not one word was out of place. Not one word could be replaced or rephrased. A perfect choice of words.
5	மத்யமேஸ்வரம்:	:	The message was delivered in even tone not too loud or too soft. Hanuman did not shout to create any vibes on the listener. The message was delivered in a pleasant and unattached tone.
6	உச்சாரயதி கல்யாணி	:	The pronunciation was impeccable and perfect and was pleasing to the ear. Here Rama stresses the importance of pronunciation how each word should be clearly pronounced to ensure clarity. If pronunciation is clear the words will flow automatically.
