These are not the only combination patterns present, and there are patterns of two ""short"" vowels followed by a ""long"" vowel in other lines, including 12, 22, and 59, which are repeated twice and then followed up with two sets of ""short"" and then ""long"" vowel pairs.

"Speech repetition Speech repetition is the saying by one individual of the spoken vocalizations made by another individual. This requires the ability in the person making the copy to map the sensory input they hear from the other person's vocal pronunciation into a similar motor output with their own vocal tract. Such speech input output imitation often occurs independently of speech comprehension such as in speech shadowing when a person automatically says words heard in earphones, and the pathological condition of echolalia in which people reflexively repeat overheard words. This links to speech repetition of words being separate in the"

"Repetition (rhetorical device) Repetition is the simple repeating of a word, within a short space of words (including in a poem), with no particular placement of the words to secure emphasis. It is a multilinguistic written or spoken device, frequently used in English and several other languages, and so rarely termed a figure of speech. Its forms, many of which are listed below, have varying resonances to listing (forms of enumeration, such as ""Firstly, Secondly, Thirdly and lastly...""), as a matter of trite logic often similar in effect.

"Vowel A vowel is one of the two principal classes of speech sound, the other being a consonant. Vowels vary in quality, in loudness and also in quantity (length). They are usually voiced, and are closely involved in prosodic variation such as tone, intonation and stress. Vowel sounds are produced with an open vocal tract. The word ""vowel"" comes from the Latin word ""vocalis"", meaning ""vocal"" (i.e. relating to the voice). In English, the word ""vowel"" is commonly used to refer both to vowel sounds and to the written symbols that represent them. There are two complementary definitions of vowel,"

Apophony is exemplified in English as the ""internal"" vowel alternations that produce such related words as The difference in these vowels marks variously a difference in tense or aspect (e.g. ""sing/sang/sung""), transitivity (""rise/raise""), part of speech (""sing/song""), or grammatical number (""goose/geese""). That these sound alternations function grammatically can be seen as they are often equivalent to grammatical suffixes (an ""external modification"")."
"Vowel harmony Vowel harmony is a type of long-distance assimilatory phonological process involving vowels that occurs in some languages. A vowel or vowels in a word must be members of the same subclass (thus ""in harmony""). In languages with vowel harmony, there are constraints on which vowels may be found near each other. Suffixes and prefixes will usually follow vowel harmony rules. Many agglutinative languages have vowel harmony. The term ""vowel harmony"" is used in two different senses. In the first sense, it refers to any type of long distance assimilatory process of vowels, either ""progressive"" or ""regressive"". When used"

The origin of this usage of ""tautonym"" is uncertain, but it has been suggested that it is of relatively recent derivation. Reduplication is often described phonologically in one of two different ways: either (1) as reduplicated ""segments"" (sequences of consonants/vowels) or (2) as reduplicated ""prosodic units"" (syllables or moras). In addition to phonological description, reduplication often needs to be described morphologically"

In inflected languages polyptoton is the same word being repeated but appearing each time in a different case.

The Mortlockese language is a Micronesian language spoken primarily on the Mortlock Islands. In the Mortlockese language, reduplication is used to show a habitual or imperfective aspect.
