recurring pattern or occurrence
When something happens many times in the same way, so that it becomes a pattern.
استعمال کا انداز:
the repetition of [events / patterns / behavior]

ہم معنی الفاظ

متضاد الفاظ

repeating words as a device
A writing or speaking technique where you repeat words on purpose to make them stronger or more beautiful.
استعمال کا انداز:
repetition of [a word / a phrase] for [effect / emphasis]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes confuse repetition as a device with accidental repeating caused by weak writing. In essays, teachers may say *"avoid repetition"* when they mean unintentional repetition, which is different from deliberate repetition for effect.
ہم معنی الفاظ
restatement (Focuses on expressing an idea again in similar or different words, and is not always tied to a formal rhetorical device.)
متضاد الفاظ
variety (Refers to using different words and structures instead of repeating the same ones.)

عام غلطی:
