Ingeminate
To repeat or reiterate. ''She had to ingeminate her point because he didn,t understand it the first time.''
Interesting word, Grogie.
ingeminate
[L. ingeminatus, p. p. of ingeminare to double; pref. in- in + geminare. See Geminate.] To redouble or repeat; to reiterate. Clarendon.
That geminate link says:
[L. geminatus, p.p. of genimare to double. See Gemini.] (Bot.) In pairs or twains; two together; binate; twin; as, geminate flowers. Gray. [/url]
