'Repeatedly' means something happens again and again as separate events, with gaps in between. 'Continuously' means it happens without stopping, as one unbroken stretch. Someone who knocks repeatedly pauses between knocks, while a continuously running motor never stops.

'Repeatedly' is an adverb and usually sits before the main verb or after the auxiliary, as in 'she repeatedly asked' or 'he has repeatedly warned them.' It can also come at the end of a clause, as in 'they called repeatedly.' Placement is flexible, but keeping it close to the verb it modifies reads most clearly.

'Repeatedly' stresses that the same action was done many times, frequently with a sense of insistence or persistence. 'Often' simply notes that something happens on many occasions without that emphasis. Saying someone 'repeatedly' asked suggests more determination than saying they 'often' asked.
