Amplification: involves repeating a word or expression while adding more detail to it , in order to emphasize what might otherwise be passed over, which means that the amplification allows to call attention to a particular thing to expand a word or the idea that want to be expressed in order to make sure the reader realizes its importance.
Example: in my hunger after ten days of rigorous dieting i saw visions of ice cream--mountains of creamy, lusciuos ice cream, dripping with gooey syrup and calories.
