E is a [[pass-references-by-value]] object-oriented language, and strings are immutable, so there is never a need for or benefit from copying a string. Various operations, such as taking the substring (run) from the beginning to the end (<code><var>someString</var>.run(0)</code>) might create a copy, but this is not guaranteed.
