I am not sure I understand correctly the kind of repetition in Kalevala. Is it perfect-reduplication like e.g. daiin daiin? If so, is it anywhere close to the almost 1% rate in the VMS?
I have only seen translations of this text, but IIRC, the repetitions are patterns like this:
The men go to the meadows,
the men go to the pastures,
the men go to the fields.
They sing songs of their country,
they sing songs of their families,
the sing songs of freedom...
and so on ... and on ... and on.
Fun fact, Borges named his most famous detective "Lönnrot". He didn't end up well.
Yes, I have only counted perfect reduplication. It seems like its usually the same word separated by ','
For example: "neiti, neiti" or "poika, poika". Sometimes the word is at the end of a line and the same word is found at the beginning of the next line.
