3.2. THE USE OF ANADIPLOSIS IN ENGLISH TEXT.
Anadiplosis - the difficulty in pronouncing the word itself scares a normal reader. But it is not a big deal - it is a stylistic device, often used and utilized by politicians in their essays and even by CEO's in their sales pitches in order to intensify the curiosity and emotions of the readers. In simpler terms, it is a rhetoric device in which the last word or phrase of the preceding clause is repeated at the beginning of the next sentence as you can see in lines, 'Strength through unity, unity through faith'. The origin of the word anadiplosis comes from two Greek words which mean "to reduplicate' or to 'double back again'. It is a powerful device that enables us to sharpen our eloquence and make speech memorable. It is extensively used in literature, especially in poems and in speeches, and you can find it in biblical quotes too. As experts say, in literature, anadiplosis takes a reader from pits to heights. It is very effective in the hands of a speaker who tries to instill hope in a group of people about a glorious present. Anadiplosis is also used to emphasize specific words as in the case of 'Rhoda Book worked hard on her manuscript, a manuscript that had nearly cost her sanity.'
