repeated
Done more once
Repeated describes something that happens more than once: repeated attempts, repeated warnings.
It suggests recurrence, often with a note of persistence or excess—repeated requests may border on nagging, repeated failures on futility.
The word can also describe something said or done again: a repeated phrase, repeated measurements.
To do something repeatedly is to do it many times over.
