Question

Which strategy is the best way to improve the written expression in a redundant sentence?
Add additional modifiers and phrases.
Eliminate powerful words.
Include words that state the obvious.
Remove unnecessary repetition.

Answer 1

Remove unnecessary repetition.

Redundancy pads sentences and weakens clarity. Eliminating repeated or needless words tightens expression and improves readability.

Example: "At this point in time, we need to make a final decision." → "We need to decide now."
