Hello everyone. I need your help. This topic is about 'EMPHASIS' Emphasis has three elements: proportion, varieties and repetition. Can you help me to trace which part of the sentences do the three elements applied? A friend says, 'Philosophy' in Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) refers to the amount of systematic examination of concepts or knowledge a degree holder possesses in his profession. Likewise, philosophy is termed to the principle common people are keeping. For instance, P.H.D., which stands for Prayer and Perseverance, Hardwork and Humility, and Dedication and Determination are principles in life that have been examined and proven by their experience. Thus, these common people can live like those professionals having a Ph.D. degree if they also keep their own PhD in life. Thanks

Emphasis by variety: you have
