Reduplication, however, is a feature of Austronesian languages (also known as Malayo-Polynesian). Some words occur only reduplicated, e.g. sayur-sayuran "vegetables".
I remember a sentence from my book of English grammar excercises:
If a sentence that had "had had" had had "had", it would have been correct.
