How is that example from Byron anadiplosis? Where does it begin a clause with the first word of the last? It appears to me to be merely repetition... --70.94.32.126 (talk) 22:43, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
An anadiplosis is NOT an epanadiplosis, why are the two words mistaken? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Feasie (talk • contribs) 21:18, 23 June 2012 (UTC)
Joining the repeated word? Is there a term for NOT repeating the word, e.g. "Hand you another drink it if you can"?
Examples
editThe Song of Songs example ("Catch for us foxes,/ foxes, little ones, which ruin vineyards,/and our vineyards [are] in bloom.") is dubious, as the repetition of "foxes" is simply repetition within a noun phrase ("anaphora"). "vinyards" is a good example only by virtue of the editorial insertion of "are".
It's best to include a few varied and striking examples in the article to help the novice reader gain a sense for this effect. Examples that are dubious may simply be confusing. WSHansen (talk) 00:11, 22 December 2023 (UTC)
