Use the noun repetition to describe something that is repeated over and over, like the repetition of singing the alphabet song several times a day to help young children learn the letters. To correctly pronounce repetition, accent the third syllable: "re-peh-TIH-shun." Repetition and the closely related repeat come from the Latin word repetere, meaning "do or say again." It can be a very effective tool in public speaking, such as the repetition of "I have a dream that one day . . ." in Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s famous speech. All forms of 'repetition' will appear on average once every 542 pages. repeat repeatable repeated repeater repeating repetition repetitive unrepeatable repeatedly repetitious repetitiousness nonrepetitive repetitively repetitiveness |
