How to use "Emphasis" in context?
When you emphasize something, you emphasize it more than normal. This can be done with words, sounds, or even gestures. For example, you might say "Don't emphasize the pun," to mean that you don't want to make a joke out of it.
You can also emphasize something by making it more noticeable. For example, you might wear a bright orange shirt so that it stands out from the other items in your wardrobe. This will make the orange item more noticeable and therefore more important in your overall appearance.
When you emphasize something, it can make a message more clear or powerful.
