Repetition Insight
2 min read
Inside one passage you can't tell — but across the chapter, "as if" was used 47 times.
What it detects
- Repeated words / phrases: excluding stopwords (the, a, an)
- Repeated sentence patterns: "he X-ed, she X-ed", "A is B" runs
- Rhetorical repeats: "as if / like" connectors used too often
- Paragraph openings: every paragraph starts with "He walked into the room"
Result
"Top 10 repeated words / patterns in this chapter" + locations + suggested swaps.
E.g.:
"as if" × 47:
- P3: "as if time stood still"
- P7: "as if it never happened"
- …
Suggest: swap some for "like" / "almost" or rewrite without simile
Whole-book scope
Default scope is the current chapter — pick "whole book" for full scan (higher cost).
Book-scope usually exposes author idiolect — light use is style, heavy is noise.
