In Hoocąk, an Indigenous language from the Midwest region of what is now the United States, paras means "flat," whereas paraparač means "square." This phenomenon, in which an element of a root word is repeated, sometimes with modification, within another word that is related to the root word, is called reduplication. In this case, the element "para" in paras gets repeated in paraparač. There are many examples of this type of reduplication in Hoocąk.
