We’ll look in greater detail at all of the literary techniques involved in speech composition later on in the course, but for now your task is to make note of how important repetition is in any speech. Search online for the full text of a recent famous speech by any world leader and simply scan it for repetitions, noting down any and all repetitions you find, as well as their number. You should find that the most important words are the most repeated, and that the point of the whole speech can sometimes be gleaned just from these repeated words. You will find a list of speeches by clicking here (or you can complete your own search).
