「repeat」本身已包含「再次」的意思，加上「again」或「the same」會造成語意重複。

✓She repeated the answer.
「repeat」是及物動詞，後面直接接名詞或名詞片語作為受詞，不接「to + 動詞」的不定詞結構。

描述問題、事件或情況「再次發生」時，更自然的用詞是「recur」或「happen again」。使用「repeat」聽起來像是有人刻意讓它再次發生。

✓I repeated to him what you said.
當「repeat」的受詞是一個子句（如「what you said」）時，若要提及聽話的對象，需使用介系詞「to」來引導。
×The teacher asked us to repeat after he.
✓The teacher asked us to repeat after him.

✓This is a repeating pattern. / This pattern repeats.
描述「持續、反覆出現的模式或行為」時，使用現在分詞「repeating」作形容詞更為自然，或直接用動詞「repeats」。過去分詞「repeated」作形容詞時，常帶有「被（某人）重複的」被動意味。
