Haven't done this in a while, but IIRC it's:
rePhraseSentence.lines.Assign(reSentence.lines);
If that doesn't work, then try this:
mem := tMemoryStream.create;
reSentence.SaveToStream (mem);
mem.seek (0,0);
rePhraseSentence.LoadFromStream (mem);
mem.destroy;
Of course, both richedits should have PlainText := false;
