What is "reduplication"?
Reduplication is a linguistic process in which a word or part of a word is repeated, often to create a new meaning or to emphasize a particular idea. This can involve repeating the entire word, as in "bye-bye", or just a part of the word, as in "super-duper". Reduplication is used in various languages and can serve different functions, such as conveying intensity, creating playful expressions, or forming plurals. It adds a rhythmic quality to language and can make speech more engaging and expressive. In some cultures, reduplication is also used in children's language or in informal communication to convey affection or familiarity.

Reduplication is a morphological process in linguistics where a part or the entirety of a word is repeated to convey grammatical or semantic changes.
