Cách sử dụng
The word "hackneyed" means something that has been used too much and has lost its originality or interest. It is often used to describe ideas, phrases, or expressions that are overused and clichéd. For example, if someone says "time heals all wounds," that phrase is considered hackneyed because it has been used so frequently that it has lost its impact. A writer might avoid using hackneyed phrases in order to make their work more original and creative.
