I don't know exactly what you mean. When using string literals, the compiler
will usually merge even partial strings. So in the example

        struct {
            const char* s;
        } bar[] = {
            { "hello world" },
            { "world" },
        };
        
there is only one string "hello world" and the second char pointer points into
the same storage.
