Diction is speech (like dire in French), and it was a bit of wordplay on the common expression ‘citation needed’ like the other commenter said :) Basically joking that a claim to speak a language should be backed up by saying something in that language to be believed.
Diction needed.
One of the languages I am not sufficiently fluent in, yet, is that of Australia and USA. What does “Diction needed” mean in this context?
I could be wrong but I think it’s a play on “citation needed” (i.e., they don’t believe you)
