Language precision is very important in the community.
The other Threes, including Jonas, had laughed nervously. "Snack!...You meant snack, Asher!" But the mistake had been made. And precision of language was one of the most important tasks of small children. Asher had asked for a smack. (Ch. 7)
Asher was hit or smacked until he stopped talking.
