<<<"And saying something is repetitive and redundant is redundant." As a member in good standing of the Grammar and Spelling Lab tribunal, I concur.>>> I dissent, if you are generalizing. It is obvious that there are many perfectly good uses of repetition that it would be unreasonable to label redundant. One may repeat for clarity, or emphasis, or for esthetic effect, for example. Redundancy, in other words, is pointless, or unnecessary, repetition.... As for whether the phrase/name "X the Unknown" is either repetitious or redundant, IMO it is neither (and wouldn't be whether there was a movie by that title or not!) I am so behind on SI it is disconcerting; and I'm getting behinder every day. Behinder and behinder. <g>
