Repeating a word adds a meaning of more, every or little by little.

How It Works

Doubling is common in everyday Bhojpuri.

Nouns that take -ए (घरे, बजारे) double with -ए on each part. A word that already has a place ending keeps it: घरे-घरे.

Doubling does not change the grammar of the rest of the sentence. The verb agrees with the subject as usual.

घरे-घरे लोग छठ के तइयारी करत बाड़ें।
In every home people are getting ready for Chhath.
घरे-घरे spreads the action over homes.
लइका धीरे-धीरे बोलल सीखत बा।

धीरे-धीरे means gradually.
गाँव-गाँव में मेला लागेला।
