Yes, but it's also about listening and understaning and not just repetition. I remember internalising intervals using a method where I would relate the sound to the opening notes of a well known melody e.g. a perfect 4th as the opening to Here Comes the Bride, a perfect 5th as the opening to the Black Beauty theme (yes, this was a while ago!!), a minor 6th as the third and fourth notes of The Entertainer by Scott Joplin, etc.
If it were only about repetition, you could teach a monkey to do it!!
