Reduplication comes from Latin reduplicatio meaning doubling, folding. It is the act or result of doubling a sound, word, or word element, usually for grammatical or lexical purposes. It is one of the most natural processes of forming compound words. In this tandem E-Lecture, Prof. Dr. Birte Bös and Prof. Dr. Jürgen Handke discuss the main principles of reduplication in PDE as well as in other languages.
