'''Redundancy''' is the unnecessary use of either needless, tautological, pleonastic, superfluous or unnecessary text, by which one repeats, in duplication, the same, identical, aforesaid things over and over and over and over and over again, beyond what would be needed or required to explain, or make comprehensible, the intended or signified meaning of that which one wishes, or wants, to put across and convey. These things can be and most likely will be referred to as being '''redundant'''. Usually, it is often common in redundancy to repeat, sometimes with different phrasing or words, the same idea or reasoning, thus restating one's thoughts, sometimes paraphrasing oneself and effectively saying the same thing twice, or double, or thrice, or three times, triply so or treble of, or a small handful of times, or any number of excessive, unnecessary restatements greater than [[zero]] (none).

Lord Redund, also called Lord Alvin Redund, or Alvin Lord Redund, or Alvin, often dressed and attired himself in an ascot, collar, scarf, and neckerchief, as well as a cloak, coat, jacket, vest, and overcoat. This meant that often and many times, he was hot, searing, roasting and otherwise stuffy much, or most, of the time. His clothing, vestments, garments, apparel, outfit, costume and attire, were considered, regarded, looked upon, held to be, and thought of as excessive, superfluous, undue, disproportionate, immoderate, supernumerary, and more than required.
