I can't think of another European example. But in the languages I work
on (Oceanic), formation of a word by reduplication (repeating the same
root) is common. Most often it just refers to multiple events  -- so
"fall-fall" would mean falling again and again, or many things falling.
But the reduplicated word may take on a distinct meaning, e.g. in
Polynesian languages /kau/ 'to swim', /kaukau/ 'to bathe'.

  Thank you...
 Since Duplication and
    Reduplication means the same thing...

Only at some very general level. Linguists use "reduplication" for a particular morphological device. "Duplication" is not an alternative name for this.
"Reduplication" may contain a certain redundancy, but language is full of redundancy.

    Reduplicate  arguably   contains the same Root twice.

Not if you understand what "root" means.

名詞の畳語に「する」を加えた動詞（「子供子供した人」「官僚官僚していな い」）は、そのものが表す典型的性質をもつ、といった意味となる。形容詞の部 分畳語では「すがすがしい」「あらあらしい」など畳語に「しい」を加えたもの がある。
