What is "amplification"?
Amplification is a rhetorical device where a writer repeats a word or phrase and adds more details or information to emphasize or clarify the original statement. This technique helps to highlight the importance of a particular idea or concept by expanding on it and providing additional context. For example, if someone says, "The house was big, very big, with numerous rooms, a grand entrance, and a sprawling garden," they are using amplification to stress how large and impressive the house is by adding descriptive details.
