cp - Reuse text on a bash command

If i'm writing a long command or just typing an extensive file path, is there any that i can "reuse" it with some command shortcut?

e.g:

1.cp /home/myuser/really/big/file/here/and/there.png /home/myuser/really/big/file/here/and/there.png.bkp

Do i really have to type it all over again?

Answer

Use brace expansion

cp /home/myuser/really/big/file/here/and/there.png{,.bkp}
