What is "Repetition of Words"?

Repetition in English Language is the repeating of a word, within a sentence in order to PROVIDE EMPHASIS. Repetition of words could be classified into number of groups based on the placement of the words in a sentence. Different terms have been devised to denote different sorts of repetitions. Some of these terms are as follows: Adnominatio, Anaphora, Antanaclasis, Antistasis, Conduplicatio, Diacope, Diaphora, Epanalepsis, Epistrophe, Epizeuxis, Mesarchia, Mesodiplosis, Palilogia, Paregmenon, Ploce, Polyptoton, Symploce, etc.

Not going into the details of these 'hard-to-pronounce' terms, I have particularly covered one popular pattern of Repetition in which two words are merely separated by conjunctions, preposition, or any other word in order to provide emphasis. However, I have also given some other popular patterns of 'Repetition of Words'.
