Eliminate Redundant Words

Many people are guilty of those. One of my pet peeves revolves around the auto industry. People referring to the VIN number. VIN is Vehicle Identification Number. No need to say number after VIN.

My wife says that I should apply more oral discipline!

Thanks for the lessons, English has been my only language for the better part of a century, some of these just creep into text, Not sure that I have used any of your illustrations but I will make a mental note to just not do it..

With most arguments there are two sides and I agree with some of the points you make but what gets me is the use of abbreviations in place names or trade jargon that no one outside the industry have the foggiest what they mean, 'New Speak', or laziness?

A good post that brings up a much needed reminder. Not sure how much it will help as I believe most people do not pay a lot of attention to what the write. One of the examples, Blatently obvious actually does not quit use two words that mean the quite the same thing. I think of Blatent as meaning in your face obvious. One of the things I love about English is that it has so many words that mean almost the same thing but with a slightly different "flavor". The variety of such words also helps one to craft sentences that flow smoothly or roughly per intent. If you see me in the real world, come say "Hi Justskin." I always behave. Preferably not well.
