Cách sử dụng
A tautology is a phrase or statement that says the same thing twice in different words. It is a type of redundancy where one word or phrase is repeated, making the statement unnecessary or meaningless. An example of a tautology is the statement "I saw it with my own eyes" because the word "own" is not needed since "I" implies possession. In English language, tautology should be avoided as it appears as a sign of poor writing or speaking skills.
