Quasi-Tautonyms
Web2 words with repeated sequences of five or more letters. (Since
generating this list I've learned that words with repeated sequences of letters
are called tautonyms; these aren't all according-to-Hoyle tautonyms because
the repeated sequences aren't always adjacent. "True" tautonyms are
colored blue, below.)
