My Latin teacher would sometimes describe words like this. In this case he said if a person were writing a long sentence along a mountainside, rather than walk all the way back to begin a new line they'd do this.
I have always wanted a list of these interesting words that relate to grammar or linguistics. I can ask GPT for some, like "epenthesis" and "apocope" and "epanalepsis," but here's hoping someone will point me to a compendium.
