reiteration
Stating once more
Reiteration is the act of saying or doing something again, often for emphasis or clarity.
The word carries a slight formality—you might hear it in meetings or academic contexts: His reiteration of the main points helped the audience follow along.
Unlike simple repetition, reiteration often implies deliberate reinforcement of a message already delivered.
