Examples of Repetition of Figure of Speech – Figure of speech is a figurative language in the form of figures of speech, similes, and parables that aim to embellish the meaning and message in a sentence. In general, figure of speech is a style of language or a way of choosing language used by the writer to convey an impression with connotative and figurative meanings.

Besides that, figure of speech is also needed to direct the reader’s emotions in a certain direction according to the context of the writing. As explained in the book The Art of Recognizing Poetry written by Agnes Pitaloka and Amelia Sundari, the use of figure of speech is considered capable of making a written work more varied and interesting to read. Usually, figure of speech is contained in novels, short stories, and other literary works.

One type of figure of speech is repetition. Repetition figure of speech is a style of language that is often used in writing. The figure of speech that is identical with the repetition of words or phrases is included in the affirmation figure of speech. The purpose of this figurative language is related to emphasis or affirmation.

For the discussion this time we will review the repetition figure of speech which includes meaning, examples in sentences, and examples in poetry. So, to understand it more deeply, see the review below.

Definition of Repetition Majas

Repetition comes from the Latin, repetitio which means, re : to come back again and petere : to direct, so the whole meaning of the word repetition is repetition again. Repetition figure of speech is a group of repetition figure of speech when viewed from its form.

However, when viewed from its meaning, the repetition figure of speech is classified as an affirmation figure of speech. Repetition figure of speech is a figurative language that expresses the repetition of the same word, phrase or clause to emphasize the meaning of a sentence or discourse.

In repetition, the repetition of the whole word or other form that is repeated means the same word. Thus, the meaning and reference contained in the word repetition are the same, which also indicates that the overall meaning formed in the first, second, third, and so on is the same.

However, the form of repetition of words presented can be used to show quantity and affirmation of ideas or maybe it just adds aesthetic value. This is what makes the overall meaning of the words repeated the same, but will have an impression at the end of the repetition.

According to the book Ultracomplete Indonesian Proverbs, Majas, Plus Pantun, Poetry, and Standard Indonesian Words written by Nur Indah Sholikhati, repetition is a style of affirmation that states its intent and purpose by repeating words, phrases, or clauses in sentences.

The Ministry of Education and Culture’s version of the Big Indonesian Dictionary (KBBI) defines repetition as a style of language that uses keywords at the beginning of a sentence to achieve a certain effect in conveying the meaning of repetition (plays and so on).

Meanwhile, Rika Lestari in the book Summary and Discussion of Middle School Indonesian Questions wrote that repetition is a figure of speech that describes something by repeating a word or several words many times. Ainia Prihantini also clarifies in Figures, Idioms, and Supercomplete Indonesian Proverbs that repetition is a figure of speech in the form of repeating the same word or group of words, with the intention of attracting attention or acting as an affirmation. Repetition figure of speech can also be interpreted as a way of strengthening meaning or purpose by repeating the word or part of the sentence that you want to strengthen the meaning.

Furthermore, there are also those who interpret the repetition figure of speech as a figure of speech which contains the repetition of the same word or group many times to emphasize the intent or purpose in a sentence. However, as previously mentioned, the repetition figure of speech is part of the affirmation figure of speech.

Emphasis figure of speech is a style of language that uses figurative words and states affirmations to increase the influence and impression on listeners or readers. The style of language which is called the repetition figure of speech also aims to increase the influence on the reader to agree with the utterance or event.

YOUR CHOICE

There are faces on the posters.
Posted to tree trunks.
Posted to utility poles.
Posted to station walls

On the eve of the election
Posters with whispering faces
Raising the noise
Amid the hustle and bustle of traffic
Causing an unpleasant smell
Among the piles of rotting garbage
