Redundant

/rɪˈdʌndənt/ adjective

Definition

not needed because something else serves the same purpose; repetitive

Etymology

From Latin redundans 'overflowing', from re- 'back' + undare 'to surge'

Kelly Says

The word originally meant 'overflowing' - like when you have so much of something that it spills over into unnecessary territory!
