记忆方法
1、repeat 的词根是拉丁语 petere"奔向、寻求"：去掉 re- 后一串同族——compete（竞争，一起奔向同一目标）、appetite（食欲，对食物的追逐）、petition（请愿）、perpetual（永久的，不断的）、impetuous（冲动的，鲁莽的）、petulant（暴躁任性的）都带"追、求"。
2、re-（再）加上"寻求"，就是 repeat"再说一遍、再做一遍"；"引、复述"三个词：cite 指引经据典，quote 指不加剪裁地引用原文，repeat 只是复述别人的话，不一定指明出处。
3、拼写：re- 加 peat，p 只有一个；第一个 e 轻读、第二个 e 长读 /rɪˈpiːt/，重音在后半截。

Meaning "say what another has said" is from 1590s. As an emphatic word in radio broadcasts, 1938. Meaning "do over again" is from 1550s; specific meaning "to take a course of education over again" is recorded from 1945, American English. Related: Repeated; repeating. - repeat (n.)
