Polyptoton

DescriptionPolyptoton is the repetition of the same word with the same meaning, but in a different way, varying such as case, mood, tense, person, degree, number and gender. ExampleI love, loved, will always love you. She hated him, despised him, utterly detested him. Fight the good fight. Love is an irresistible desire to be irresistibly desired. DiscussionRepetition emphasises, though simple repetition can be a little boring and obvious. Polyptoton adds interest and perhaps some concealment by repeating something in different forms.
