Well, these are 2 different words, not one, so 'it' is unclear. :)

There is the verb [to duplicate] and the noun [a duplicate].
Each is pronounced differently.


I will duplicate [v] that dance move.

    --> long 'a', as in 'date'


This is a duplicate [n] of the original.

    --> short 'a' (eh) , as the vowel sound in 'heavy'



See. Perfectly logical.  8-/
