EN: to repeat over and over
This is the 'unli-rice' version of 'ulitin'. It’s not just repeating, it’s repeating *repeatedly*. It's what you do when you're practicing a dance step, memorizing a script, or when your lola reminds you for the nth time to bring an umbrella. 'Huwag kalimutan ang payong, ha? Baka umulan. Dala ka ng payong.' That's 'ulit-ulitin' in action.
Reduplication of 'ulit'.
The reduplication of the root word adds intensity and indicates frequent, continuous, or habitual repetition.
