You healed her using ''firebending''! Why didn’t anyone ''say'' anything? Uncle didn’t tell you, the Sages didn’t tell you, even your stupid ''dragons'' didn’t tell you!”''''

[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anadiplosis Anadiplosis]], like its sister, {{Mesodiplosis}}, is a word formed of three parts:
# ᾰ̓νᾰ- (''Ana''), meaning [[https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E1%BC%80%CE%BD%CE%B1-#Ancient_Greek "back"]], probably.
# δίπλω (''díplō''), meaning "a doubling"
# σις (-''sis''), suffix to turn verbs to nouns.

And like its sister, it's about repeating something in consecutive phrases to connect them, but in this case, it's linking them at the touching ends.

Antati (anta=end, ati=beginning) is a specific form of Tamil {{poetry}} which consists entirely of Anadiploses. Taken a step further--the first word of the series of verses is the same as the final word of the poem--, it becomes a 'garland of verses'.

When used in prose it's usually to illustrate a sequence, or otherwise respond to the end of a phrase. RepeatedForEmphasis doesn't count because that must repeat without continuing on. [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimetabole Antimetaboles]], consecutive phrases with their word order flipped, such as "Tous pour un, un pour tous" of ''Literature/TheThreeMusketeers'', may also be anadiplosises, and is also {{Mesodiplosis}}.
