Definition
次次 is an adverb meaning 'every time' or 'each time'. It is formed by repeating the measure word 次 (cì, 'time' as in occurrences). You use it to emphasize that something happens consistently on every occasion, often in patterns like 次次都 (every time, all) or 次次不 (every time, not). It's a bit more emphatic than just 每次 (měi cì).
