My protagonist uses a lot of extensive vocabulary and is quite verbose. The novel I am writing is a first-person narrative, and my protagonist is the narrator of the novel. An extensive vocabulary and verbosity throughout the narration of the novel will be very frustrating and tiring for me. And maybe for the reader too. If I keep the narration normal, obviously keeping the same personality in the narration too. But only during his dialogues, he will use extensive vocabulary. Is this ok to do?
