Answer: To make the language more memorable

Explanation:

In speech, we often emphasize certain words which carry an important message. This is often done by politicians and professional speakers who deliver their speech in front of a mass of people. In doing so, we are hoping that our audience remembers the speech and the ideas we are trying to convey. By emphasizing our words and phrases, our speech is more persuasive.
