student asking question

"in my bedroom on my bedroom floor" sounds unnatural to me. Why's he repeating bedroom again?

Good question! The first time he says "bedroom" he uses it as a noun to refer his room that he sleeps in. The second time, it's used to describe a noun, in this case, the "floor;" the type of floor or what room the floor is in to give more context. Ex: I was at school in my school library. Ex: She wasn't at work during work hours.
