An ending becomes a beginningSourced
A repeated word links one clause to the next
Anadiplosis repeats the final word of one clause at the beginning of the following clause. The repetition can link ideas and build emphasis or a climax. A word is not simply used twice: its position connects the ending of one thought with the opening of another.
The last word hands the sentence onward.
