In Ojibwe, an Indigenous language from the Great Lakes region of what are now the United States and Canada, wâsa means "far," whereas wa-wâsa means "far apart." 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 "wâ" in wâsa gets repeated in wa-wâsa. There are many examples of this type of reduplication in Ojibwe.
