In the novel Don Quixote, Pt. I, to pass the time, Sancho Panza tells his master a story using so much anadiplosis that Don Quixote becomes annoyed. Says Sancho in ch. 20, "In a town of Extremadura there was a goatherd...; which goatherd was Lope Ruiz by name: and this Lope Ruiz was in love with a shepherdess named Torralba: which shepherdess named Torralba was the daughter of a rich cattleman; and this rich cattleman..."  Don Quixote interrupts: "If you tell your story this way, Sancho... by repeating twice what you are saying, you will not finish in two days..." To this Sancho responds, "The same way I am telling it...all stories are told in my land, and I don't know how to tell it otherwise, nor it is good for your grace to ask me to start new customs." 

Parviz Ahmadi does not make a question, but a statement about a so-called 'reduced anadiplosis', which he refrains from defining. He should give an example thereof.

Anadiplosis in plain English: Beginning a sentence or clause by repeating the last word or words of the previous sentence or clause.

its Effect are: 1)Repetition of the words adds rhythm and cadence.

2) The repeated words are emphasized.

3) Anadiplosis often builds in intensity to a climax.

e.g.: “Fear is the path to the Dark Side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.”   — Yoda in Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace (1999).

e.g.: “Without a healthy economy, we can’t have a healthy society. And without a healthy society, the economy won’t stay healthy for long.” — Margaret Thatcher, Conservative Party Address, 10 October 1980.

But, dear Ahamdi, could you please elaborate a little more what you mean by linguistic variants? Do you mean  equivalent in other languages?

I think that Paviz Ahmadi hints at this linked paper:

http://journals.aiac.org.au/index.php/alls/article/view/544/457 

The reduced anadiplosis is in fact a kind of ellipsis of the subject in the second term of the anadiplosis. This example is provided in the paper: this Nabokov's anadilposis "What I present here is what I remember of the letter, and what I remember of the letter I remember verbatim" would have been translated in Arabic in a reduced anadiplosis like this :  “What I present here is what I remember of the letter, ___ I remember verbatim". 

As far as I know, it seems impossible to find an example like that in French. If it were to happen, this ellipsis without any anaphoric device would probably be understood as a grammatical error rather than a stylistic effect. 

http://journals.aiac.org.au/index.php/alls/article/view/544/457

In anadiplosis, a words or a group of words are repeated in in two successive successive clauses so that these repeated word/s are at the end of the first clause and at the beginning of the next clause.

The love of wicked men converts to fear,

That fear to hate, and hate turns one or both

To worthy danger and deserved death.

—Shakespeare, Richard II 5.1.66-68

When you refer to "linguistic variants", my understanding is that you are referring to various forms of repetition. If my assumption is accurate, there are many such mechanisms available in languages of the world.

some of them include chiasmus, antimetabole , adnominatio , anaphora , antanaclasis, antistasis, conduplicatio, diacope, diaphora.

Following link will give you a comprehensive understanding of such mechanisms.

Hope this is useful. 

From a rhetorical standpoint, all repetition are only apparent; rather, the second must vary from the first.  Repetition and variation, with emphasis or de-emphasis puts a word in play, calling attention to and away from itself.  Figures engineer semiotic work that formal analysis can never finally reduce to a classification system.  

Beautiful, Monica.

There are some very interesting observations so far. I would expect there to be a higher prevalence in spoken language than written but I may be wrong. I do see a number of examples in my students writing although this is mainly in the form of noun phrases repeated as part of the attempt at "cohesion" by the student. As a teacher we tend to call it repetition and it is common for me to "correct" the students' accordingly. I am not sure if this is a result of L1 interference or the students' level of English. Maybe some other researchers could tell me.

Yes, Monica, I admire your answer -it's magnificently put into words, if I can say so. Thank you very much for it. Janina

Dear All,

When I started to learn French I remember a little game with the words which served to learn the present perfect.

Je vous vends la maison de mon petit bonhomme.

Je vous vends la porte de la maison de mon petit bonhomme.

Je vou vends la clé de la porte de la maison de mon petit bonhome.

Je vous vends le cordon qui est attaché a la clé de la porte de la maison de mon petit bonhomme.

Je vous vends le rat qui a rongé le cordon qui est attaché a la clé de la porte de la maison de mon petit bonhomme.

Je vous vends le chat qui a mangé le rat qui a rongé le cordon qui est attaché a la clé de la porte de la maison de mon petit bonhomme.

Je vous vends le chien qui a mordu le chat qui a mangé le rat qui a rongé le cordon qui est attaché a la clé de la porte de la maison de mon petit bonhomme.

Je vous vends le chasseur qui a tué le chien qui a mordu le chat qui a mangé le rat qui a rongé le cordon qui est attaché a la clé de la porte de la maison de mon petit bonhomme.

Je vous vends la sorciere qui a avalé le chasseur qui a tué le chien qui a mordu le chat qui a mangé le rat qui a rongé le cordon qui est attaché a la clé de la porte de la maison de mon petit bonhomme.

Here you are the English translation:.

I vend you the house of my little friend.

I vend you the door of the house of my little friend.

I vend you the key of the door of the house of my little friend.

I vend you the string attached to the key of the door of the house of my little friend.

I vend you the rat which has chewed the string attached to the key of the door of the house of my little friend.

I vend you the cat which has eaten the rat which has chewed the string attached to the key of the door of the house of my little friend.

I vend you the dog which has bitten the cat which has eaten the rat which has chewed the string attached to the key of the door of the house of my little friend.

I vend you the hunter who has killed the dog which has bitten the cat which has eaten the rat which has chewed the string attached to the key of the door of the house of my little friend.

I vend you the witch who has swallowed the hunter who has killed the dog which has bitten the cat which has eaten the rat which has chewed the string attached to the key of the door of the house of my little friend.

Dear András,

nice play with words, but no anadiplosis. Your example serves by repeating for a better memory effect and linguistic training.  I don´t know how this often used technique is called in linguistics. I also know the inverse technique, which shortens the sentences for each repeat or plays where some letters are omitted.

Dear Hanno,

Of course, you are right but I could not resist.

Dear All,

Here you are a part of the Gospel of John:

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.”

Hi there. Have you had a look at the very significant role of ALLITERATION in English? Best regards.
