- Abstract
This paper tries to investigate a typological study of reduplication and its structure and patterns of two languages belonging to entirely different language families viz-a-viz Dhundhari which is an indo Aryan language and Adi, a Tibeto-Burman language. Reduplication is a common phenomenon and an important morphological process in the grammar of both the languages where a lexical item is obtained from the existing base word and showing the syntactic, semantic, pragmatic functions. This paper exemplifies types of reduplication processes with the help of examples. Further, we will also look at the aspect of Expressive morphology presented in both Dhundhari and Adi, thus showing a correlation between the two far off languages.
