When I was reading English, I found this exotic word: **epizeuxis**.

Instantly I racked my brains to find the equivalent counterpart in Japanese.

Here are the results:

> [**Epizeuxis**](https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E7%95%B3%E8%AA%9E%E6%B3%95) :
> **畳語法** (じょうごほう)、 または畳句法、 **畳音法** )

> 同じ語句を繰り返して強調やリズムの効果を上げようとする修辞法。

Others definition:

> **《畳語法》**  
>  畳語法（じょうごほう、または畳句法、畳音法、Epizeuxis）とは、激しさまたは強調のために、言葉を連続して繰り返す修辞技法のこと。

My Questions:

  1. Is there any practical use of **Epizeuxis (畳語法)** in Japanese?

  2. If there is one, can you give an example?
