A reduction, especially the measure of damages based on lost value.
Damages were assessed by the diminution in the property's value rather than the far greater cost of rebuilding.
Rarity runs from 0 (a word everyone knows) to 100 (almost never seen outside specialist or literary writing). Level is the word's real difficulty on the CEFR scale, from A1 to C2.
