英汉词语重叠方式及其修辞功能

English and Chinese Repetitions and their Rhetoric Functions

英语、汉语词语重叠都可分为叠音、叠词和叠句三种方式。但英语叠音不多,汉语叠音(叠字)则很常见。至于叠词和叠句,英汉都很常见,且种类繁多,类型相似。词语重叠是英汉共有的一种修辞手段,它用来表示加强语式、说话强烈的感情,增强语言的节奏感,给内容增添新的色彩,以引起读者的注意力和共鸣。

Sound repetition,word repetition and sentence repetion are found in both English and Chinese and all are common rhetoric expressions with variety except English sound repetition. Rhetoric repetition is effective for emphasis,emotion,rhythm,tones and readers' attention and response as well.
