It might make sense to mention the editor which you are using. Also, very likely, we have older question about the same. :-)

Just select the source object, hit ctrl+C on your keyboard, then hit ctrl+V on your keyboard and position the new (duplicated) object at the desired position with your mouse. See https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/ID/Shortcuts for more useful shortcuts.

A related question is how to copy (possibly only some) tags from one object to another - see https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/51910/how-do-i-copy-the-tags-from-another-node-or-way for this.
