Language Feature: Anaphora- English

Anaphora:

What is it? Anaphora is a use of a word that you have written earlier on in the 'text'

Why is it used/ what is the effect? Anaphora is the repetition of a certain word or phrase at the beginning of successive lines of writing or speech. ... As a rhetorical device or a technique that an author uses to persuade, anaphora is used for the purpose of generating a particular effect in your audience.

Find two examples online:
Every day, every night, in every way, I am getting better and better
Everything looked dark and bleak, everything looked gloomy, and everything was under a blanket of mist.”

Write one example yourself: Laughing by myself, crying by myself, working by myself
