Definition
迭 is a literary adverb meaning 'repeatedly' or 'again and again'. It often appears in formal or written Chinese, especially in fixed expressions like 迭次 (repeatedly), 迭起 (to occur repeatedly), and 迭出 (to appear one after another). It is not used in everyday conversation; instead, you would use 反复 or 一再 for 'repeatedly' in spoken Chinese.
