    There and there.

    when two person fight with each other, they make some voice or say some phrase such as : " there and there "
    what it mean " there and there"?

    Do they now. What frightfully civilized fighting. There old chap no there I say. Sounds like you are referring to a stage convention where rapiers are thrust in accompanied by cries of "There". Short perhaps for "I've just stabbed my enemy in the kidney audience so expect him to roll over dramatically any time now!" There. I told you so!

    It sounds like an archaic phrase but I would offer the translation "Take that!"
