okay. okay. can i be honest. can i be so so honest. i do try to listen to 'mindless' audio books at work and then i end up looking like angry pingu dot jpeg with my arms crossed and brow furrowed because i will have Thoughts and Opinions and then i'll start complaining about the syntax and the diction and the overuse of epanalepsis and then i'll get so huffy that i return the book.
OR in the case of nonfiction i'll go 'well that's incredibly credulous. you're just regurgitating that press release without doing your due diligence'. or i'll start to wonder where, exactly, they got these figures, and then i'll start doing research out of sheer cantankerous obstinance
i do not want to be like this. i do not want to be guy pointing at the screen going they would not say that in 1800's ireland. but it is so so so hard to Stop Doing That

we should start using rhetorical devices as tone tags
like i should be able to go "man this has literally been the worst day of my life /hyperbole" or "save me blorbo from my shows, blorbo from my shows save me /epanalepsis"

the cheese diaries, part 1
I've started myself on a journey. It started as a joke. It was a bit. A gag with some buddies at work whose genesis was in what we lovingly refer to as "speedrunning wikipedia". If anyone out there in the void ever comes across this post which I am throwing out into the void of the internet; let me explain, just in case you're unfamiliar. First, open up Wikipedia. Hit the random page button. Open a new tab and open some kind of random word generator. The goal is to see how fast you can go from the random page Wikipedia gave you to the random word the generator gave you. Or, you can just choose two at random. The cheese adventure began in this way- a coworker sent me the Wikipedia page for Epanalepsis. Epanalepsis is not the point of this story, so I shall not worry you with what Epanalepsis is. (if you get it, you get it.)
Anyways. Speedrun. Cheese. Back on topic.
He sent me this link, and I, lacking serotonin and the willpower to stay focused but having my secret superpowers- autism and ADHD, decided the only logical thing to do with this link was to find out how many pages away from Epanalepsis the page for "cheese" was. The answer shook me to my core and has, very dramatically speaking, changed the course of my life forever. (Someday I'll write about how my unhealthy obsession with the film Ratatouille lead me to obsessing over cheese. No, it is not because Rat Eat Cheese.)
Epanalepsis is only four pages away from cheese. Epanalepsis -> figure of speech -> pun -> Pinky and the Brain -> Cheese.
He, a scholar like myself, immediately began his own research, this time moving from the page for the first Mexican elected president, Guadalupe Victoria to the page for cheese. In this case, our charted path is as followed; Guadalupe Victoria -> Oaxaca -> Oaxaca Cheese -> Cheese. Ever since, it has become a common office activity. With the frivolity, however, has come a deep craving for cheese... and so, I began buying a fancy cheese a week so I can taste a bunch of cheese while I speed run between random Wiki pages to cheese.
You know. As you do.
So now that I've set the scene as if this was a recipe blog post, lemme tell you 'bout these cheeses. But in short form- so realistically, I've just set you all up for grand disappointment. There will be no long-form writing about these cheeses; instead, there will simply be a brief description. I'm really only writing these for myself.
Caramella - This cheese is from Boar's Head. It's an 12 month aged gouda with a parmesan twist. It's incredible. It's sharp, nutty, a bit fruity, and is now my favorite cheese of all time. I have very little to say other than I want some Caramella right now.
Point Reyes Toma This one's from Farmstead Cheese Co. It's buttery, creamy, soft, gooey. Truly delightful. The internet tells me I should try this cheese after it's been put on the grill- but I can't even imagine something this soft not just melting straight through the grill. If this post ever reaches someone with professional cheese preparation skills- how the hell do I grill a soft cheese? (Or am I being incredibly stupid, and was it saying grilled cheese as in the sandwich? Help.)
Aged Gouda - What can I say? I love gouda!! It's... good-uh.... haw haw .... haw...

Being a poet is not about inventing some new poet’s voice through which to speak. Poets find the poetry in their own voice, and believe you me it’s there waiting for you.
If however, you’d like help in doing that, then I have three book recommendations: 1 Scott Wiggerman & David Meischen’s Wingbeats: Exercises & Practice in Poetry, 2 Mark Forsyth’s Elements of Eloquence: Secrets to the Perfect Turn of Phrase, and 3 Literally any book of poetry you can get your hands on.
The first is is a collection of exercises and essays designed to help teach teaching poetry. It’s what a lot of English teacher’s use when creating introductory poetry classes, and I cannot reccommend some of the exercises in it enough. There’s also a sequel Wingbeats II, but I can’t speak for the quality of that, having not used it myself.
The second is a walk through the most common figures of rhetoric, which are what make poetry sound like poetry. The books thesis is that poetry is a lot like cooking, except everybody is cooking with blindfolds on because they aren’t taught what all the ingredients are and what effects they elicit. It covers things you probably already know about, like alliteration, but also the less well known but arguably more useful polyptoton, anthimeria, and epanalepsis. It’s also that book from which that adjective order list that circled the internet a couple of years ago came from.
And the third, is exactly what it says on the tin: literally every poetry book you can get your hands on. Turns out there’s an overlap between the writing poetry synapses and the reading poetry synapses. If you read more poetry, you’ll find yourself better able to write poetry, as a general rule.
Y’all can be a poet. You can do it all by yourself without any help. You can, but who bodybuilds without ever once using an outside resource to teach them how to do it better? Poets donot emerge from the womb writing shakespeare. They train, classically or otherwise, in solitude or in community, to do what they do with language.
I respect poetry so much because it does what I cannot do - say so much with so little.
When I have something Much to say, it takes me just as many words to say it. I say it with words that are each of them bland and common, unimaginative by their lonesome, with the hopes that if I stack so many together and squeeze a single drop of Much from each that it might flow into something meaningful.
When I have something to say, I say it twice. I say it three times. Because the first or second may not have captured the point. Because I do not trust myself to express the full essence saying it just once. Like just now, those last two sentences. I’ll repeat myself a third time for good measure - because I do not say it right just once or twice.
Poems say things in only a half, only a quarter. They choose single words worth more than ten of mine. I want to know how their minds shop for words. I want to distill myself like poets do. I want to trade in all my too many common words for the way they use an extraordinary few.
If I keep writing this, I’ll write it forever. I’ll explain myself again, as I have already, as I’m doing now. With more and different other words, with the hope of saying myself fully, like how all the hatched and messy wanton scribbles from a pen might finally color in a page. I want to change that. I want to not rip the page I’ve oversaturated by the tip of my pen.
I’ll start tomorrow, maybe, to explain myself less.

20 Repetition Examples Worth Repeating (+10 Repetition Types)
We see repetition examples everywhere — in books, movies, music, and even commercials.
Advertisers use repetition to craft catchy slogans that entice us to buy. Musicians use it to create songs that get stuck in our heads. Politicians use it to persuade nations.
But you? 
How can you use repetition to spice up your writing and make it memorable?
I’ll show you how. 
But first, we need to start with the basics. So let’s define repetition then jump into some examples. 
Shall we?
What is Repetition? 
Repetition is a literary device where words or phrases repeat for emphasis. 
There are several types of repetition. For instance, alliteration is the repetition of consonant sounds. 
You might remember this consonance example from your childhood:
“Sally sells seashells by the seashore.”
Sound familiar?
But repetition is used for more than just childhood tongue twisters. If used correctly, it’ll strengthen your writing by:
Emphasizing your message
Boosting memorability
Adding rhythm
Linking ideas or topics together
But I should issue a warning.
There’s a fine line between repetition and redundancy.
For example, take the following paragraph:
He raced to the grocery store. He went inside but realized he forgot his wallet. He raced back home to grab it. Once he found it, he raced to the car again and drove back to the grocery store.
“Raced” is repeated, but it doesn’t strengthen the sentences. Instead, it sounds like the author couldn’t think of better word choices.  
What follows, then, is too many filler words that confuse the reader and lose their attention. 
Now compare that redundant paragraph to this repetition example:
It was the best of times,
it was the worst of times,
it was the age of wisdom,
it was the age of foolishness,
Do you see how compelling that is? 
It’s the opening to Charles Dickens’ novel, A Tale of Two Cities. 
Dickens’ repetition draws his readers in and encourages them to keep turning the page. 
Can it do the same for you and your audience?
Yes. 
Let’s show you how to replicate this with more examples.
10 Types of Repetition with Examples 
Repetition is an umbrella literary device that includes more specific types of stylistic tools, like alliteration, epistrophe, diacope, and others. 
And here’s a hint:
Each type of repetition serves a unique purpose. The one you choose depends on what you’re trying to convey. 
So let’s talk about that next. 
1. Anaphora 
Anaphora is the repetition of words at the beginning of successive clauses. 
It’s common in music, poems, and children’s books that have a rhyming element.
For example, Nico and Vinz’s song “Am I Wrong?” features this anaphora:
So am I wrong for thinking that we could be something for real?
Now am I wrong for trying to reach the things that I can’t see?
Listen to how catchy this line sounds below:
youtube
Anaphora can also be used in speeches to motivate people. Dr. Martin Luther King’s ‘I Have a Dream’ speech included this repetition example:
Let freedom ring from Stone Mountain of Georgia.
Let freedom ring from Lookout Mountain of Tennessee.
Let freedom ring from every hill and molehill of Mississippi.
See what I mean? 
Repetition not only emphasized Dr. King’s point, but it made it more memorable and quotable. 
2. Epizeuxis
Epizeuxis is the repetition of a word or phrase in immediate succession. 
Winston Churchill used epizeuxis in his address to Harrow School:
Never give in. Never give in. Never, never, never, never-in nothing, great or small, large or petty-never give in, except to convictions of honor and good sense.
How’s that for a commencement speech?
Churchill was known for his inspiring speeches that were packed full of powerful words and rhetorical devices. 
But while repetition examples are common in speeches, they don’t stop there. Writers have used repetition for ages.
For example, in King Lear, William Shakespeare wrote:
And my poor fool is hanged! No, no, no life!
Why should a dog, a horse, a rat have life,
And thou no breath at all? Thou’lt come no more,
Never, never, never, never!
In the scene above, King Lear is grieving the death of his daughter. The use of epizeuxis is a perfect choice for this scene because it strengthens the emotion.
3. Epistrophe 
Epistrophe, also called “epiphora,” uses repetition at the end of independent clauses or sentences. 
Many writers and speakers use epistrophe to drive home their points. 
Abraham Lincoln achieved this in his “Gettysburg Address”:
Government of the people, by the people, and for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
Powerful, isn’t it?
Many musicians also love using repetition to add a regular rhythm to their songs and make them catchy. 
And they’re right. 
We see it in Beyonce’s “Single Ladies” song:
‘Cause if you liked it then you shoulda put a ring on it
If you liked it then you shoulda put a ring on it
Don’t be mad once you see that he want it
4. Negative-Positive Restatement
A negative-positive restatement states an idea twice, first in negative terms and then in positive terms. These are typically “not this, but that” statements. 
For example:
“Ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country,” said John F. Kennedy. 
Another famous negative-positive restatement comes from Martin Luther King. He said, “Freedom is not given; it is won.”
5. Diacope  
Diacope is the repetition of a single word or phrase, separated by intervening words. It comes from the Greek word thiakhop, which means “cutting in two.”
My favorite example comes from Michael Jordan. He said:
“I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.” 
Jordan first said this in a Nike ad. You can watch this short commercial below. I promise you won’t be disappointed:
youtube
Speaking of commercials, Maybelline uses a diacope in their tagline when they say, “Maybe she’s born with it; maybe it’s Maybelline.”
6. Epanalepsis 
Epanalepsis repeats words or phrases at the beginning and the end of the same sentence or clause. 
For example:
“Control, control, you must learn control,” said Yoda in The Empire Strikes Back.
Check it out:
youtube
Epanalepsis puts a heavy emphasis on the idea you’re trying to convey. 
It also uses the “primacy” and “recency” effects which means the first and last thing we hear is more likely to stick in our minds. 
Some politicians love this technique. Politicians like John F. Kennedy. 
He used this repetition example in his address to the United Nations:
Mankind must put an end to war — or war will put an end to mankind.
7. Epimone
Epimone uses repetition to dwell on a point. It’s commonly used in stories where a character is pleading or commanding someone to do something. 
We saw it in Oliver Goldsmith’s play, She Stoops to Conquer: 
I tell you, sir, I’m serious! And now that my passions are roused, I say this house is mine, sir; this house is mine, and I command you to leave it directly.
Epimone is also used to illustrate persistence. For example, in Webster’s address to the Senate, he said:
The cause, then, Sir, the cause! Let the world know the cause which has thus induced one State of the Union to bid defiance to the power of the whole, and openly to talk of secession.
8. Polyptoton 
Polyptoton involves the repetition of words that derive from the same root word. 
Here’s a famous quote from John Emerich Edward Dalberg-Acton:
“Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.”
Remember that one?
“Absolute” and “absolutely” are different words, but they derive from the same root word. 
Polyptoton is common in headlines and book titles too. 
Heidi Murkoff’s popular book on pregnancy is titled What to Expect When You’re Expecting
Here’s a screenshot of the cover page:
9. Antistasis 
Antistasis uses repetition to contrast two ideas. It derives from the Greek meaning “to stand against” or “opposing position.”
For example, when someone asks you:
“Are you working hard or hardly working?”
That’s an antistasis example because it contrasts two ideas on work. 
Advertisers use this technique too. The tagline of the Starkist Tuna commercials was:
“Sorry, Charlie. StarKist wants tuna that tastes good, not tuna with good taste.“
Do you see how the combination of those contrasting ideas makes you stop and think? 
That’s the goal. 
10. Antanaclasis 
Antanaclasis repeats the same word or phrase but with a different meaning each time. This repeated phrase is also known as a pun because it’s a play on words. 
Benjamin Franklin used it when he said, “Your argument is sound, nothing but sound.” 
In the first part, he said the argument is solid. In the second, he discounted it as noise. 
Vince Lombardi, a famous football coach, also used antanaclasis when he stated:
“If you aren’t fired with enthusiasm, you will be fired with enthusiasm.”
See how easy that is?
Stating the same phrases in a different way makes them wittier.
Examples of Repetition in Literature 
Surprise, surprise:
Some of the best repetition examples come from books and poems.
It didn’t take long for many of the world’s most famous writers — like Shakespeare and Maya Angelou — to understand the power of this rhetorical device.
For example, Romeo and Juliet, Shakespeare used repetition when he said:
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.
Oh, woeful, oh woeful, woeful, woeful day!
In F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel, The Great Gatsby, he used repetition in successive phrases to emphasize his point:
The apartment was on the top floor-a small living-room, a small dining-room, a small bedroom, and a bath.
The repeated word “small” highlights to the reader how tiny Tom’s apartment is.
Maya Angelou also knew how to use this literary technique to her advantage. In her poem, Still I Rise, she said:
Leaving behind nights of terror and fear
I rise
Into a daybreak that’s wondrously clear
I rise
Bringing the gifts that my ancestors gave,
I am the dream and the hope of the slave.
I rise
I rise
I rise.
This repetition in poetry emphasizes Angelou’s main point and signifies her strength. 
Famous Examples of Repetition in Pop Culture 
Repetition is common in music because it makes it easy to sing along with the lyrics.
Here’s an example from Elvis Presley’s “Hound Dog”:
You ain’t nothin’ but a hound dog
Cryin’ all the time
You ain’t nothin’ but a hound dog
Cryin’ all the time
We also see repetition all the time in movies. 
Why?
Because it gives us quotable movie lines that stand the test of time. Here’s a famous repetition example from Taxi Driver:
You talkin’ to me? You talkin’ to me? You talkin’ to me? Then who the hell else are you talkin’ to? You talkin’ to me? Well, I’m the only one here.
Hear this quote in action:
youtube
And then, of course, another famous repetition example comes from the James Bond series. James Bond always introduces himself as “Bond. James Bond.”
Why Write with Repetition? 
Let me ask you:
If there was an easy way to be more memorable, would you do it?
And if you could easily add emphasis to your message, would you do it?
Of course you would. 
Just by using repeated patterns in one sentence or paragraph, you can:
Make your point more convincing
Increase memorability
Add flow to your writing
Make your words rhyme
Link topics or ideas together
Think of it this way.
There’s a reason why some of history’s most famous speakers used repetition. Winston Churchill, JFK, and Martin Luther King used it because it works. 
It makes your writing more persuasive, quotable, and memorable. And in writing, that’s considered the triple threat. 
Ready to Put These Repetition Examples to Work?
Using repetition is simple.
Start by choosing an idea that you want to emphasize. Then repeat words that stress that idea and make your prose more quotable. 
But a friendly reminder:
Don’t overuse repetition. Just use it on thoughts or ideas that you want to carry a significant impact, or else it’ll lose its effect. 
Remember my redundancy example from earlier?
You don’t want to look like a lazy writer who couldn’t find a better way to word your message.
Instead, use it like David Schwartz when he said:
“The mind is what the mind is fed.”
See how that works? Now go try it for yourself.
You’ve got this.

Figures of Speech Writing Challenge
(Based on The Elements of Eloquence by Mark Forsyth)
I needed motivation to practice writing rhetorical devices, so I thought I might make a challenge out of it.
For each of the figures of speech, write a few sentences (or more) using it. Or let people send you a number to prompt you! If you have the book, that'll be handy since it has many examples of each type to get you thinking. Otherwise, a browser search plus the book's Wikipedia page will be handy. Try not to focus on perfecting it as much as practicing and getting a feel for how it sounds in your writing.
Good luck!
