O knihe
You know those phrases and expressions that repeat a word in whole or in part? Phrases like namby-pamby, flim-flam and higgledy-piggledy? Well, there's a name for them! They are called reduplicated words and phrases. In this small book, Lazlo Maslow (Kelvin Murray) lists and explains some 260 reduplicated terms, using wry observations based on personal experience. So what exactly is reduplication? Well, the best way to understand the concept is to look at a few examples in this book. In terms of a formal definition, one might say that, "reduplication is a morphological linguistic process whereby an entire word, or even just a part of a word, is repeated either exactly or with a small modification". "Enough of this introductory clap-trap!", I hear you muttering, "Let's get to the nitty-gritty!" Okey-dokey then, open the cover and dive right in!
