何なん度ども
何度も is a more casual, everyday expression for 'many times'. 再三 is slightly more formal and often implies a deliberate, insistent repetition.
繰くり返かえし
繰り返し emphasizes the cyclical nature of repetition, while 再三 focuses on the frequency and persistence of an action.

Composed of 再 (again) and 三 (three), literally 'two, three times', used idiomatically to mean 'repeatedly'.
