I have gotten help from here before and I was hoping that another kind person could help me again, since I always get such helpful answers. I have written an essay and I have my ideas stated pretty well but I am adding the final touches to it. This include spicing up the words a bit. Can someone tell me a word that means sort of making it bigger, or showing it off. For example, a student writes a good sentence or something, and the teacher puts it up on the board in front of the class. What word can I use to state that simply?
