Pro Tip 1/3
Positive Emphasis
Use 'highlight' to express something positive or memorable that stands out. The highlight of the evening was the jazz band's performance.
Pro Tip 2/3
Metaphorical Use
'Highlight' can be used figuratively to describe non-physical features, like moments or feelings. Graduation day was the highlight of my school years.
Pro Tip 3/3
Avoid Overuse
Be selective. Not everything positive is a 'highlight.' It should be a standout moment. Seeing the sunrise from the mountaintop was the true highlight of the hike.
