"I have been made redundant because my work here is no longer needed."

The adjective 'redundant' means 'more than necessary' and, as in this context, 'dismissed'. The expression 'I have been made redundant' means that I have lost my job because I am not needed any more.

By the above, it's clear one would be attractive and happy to relieve the people of redundancy in employment and so you could only be an employer often sacking those redundant for your business! Right?

For anything otherwise, you get the upbeat just bcos of the "drumming effect" you get on the word! Right?

If you are using the word "redundant" like its going out of style, its probably because people around you have been using it. If they aren't using it or you don't think they are, listen to the conversation like if you were writing it down. Think about everything that comes out of your friends mouth and yours and your habit of redundancy will vanish.

Have you looked up the word in the dictionary? I think it means repetitious, a repeat of something that is already known, or established.

May be - and this is just a wild guess - you're very insecure, and need reassurance, conformation of what is accepted as acceptable, truly is acceptable; and that an excuse for what is real is trying to be put over on you as unreal, and you are always questioning the answer to a question. Does this makes sense. Does it?

I like the word! How long ago did you hear it? Here's a new one to go with it: superfluous. It's pronounced sue PER flu us, and means "too much," or "too wordy," like I'm probably being! Sorry, hope I'm not being too redundant! Ha ha!

because redundancy is redundant and if u are redundant then that is what u are, very redundant, which would be very annoying and redundant and would piss people off because of the redundancy

that is my brother's name. i have a twin brother and the nurse asked my mother what to put on the paper and she had already named me for daddy. so, since she looks exactly like me, she laughed and said he was "redundant." and they wrote that down. later he got it changed. He hated being called Redundent. We call him Charley, now.

Presumably, U enjoy pronouncing 'redundant', it is quite lyrical & melodious unlike say, 'derogatory' or 'monstrous'.
