How to use "Castigation" in context?
Castigation is disciplining one's self harshly through verbal rebuke, often accompanied by an act of violence. Castigation may be physical, such as spanking, slapping, or beating, but can also be emotional, such as berating or shouting. Castigation typically seeks to punish an individual, either physically or emotionally, to make them aware of their wrongdoings and to correct them. The aim is to restore order and discipline to the individual and to punish them for their act of indiscipline.
