Is sorry a cliche?
A cliche is :A trite or over-used expression. Such phrases as "the apple of my eye," "dead as a doornail," or "avoid it like the plague" are considered cliches.Cliche is an expression that has become stale from too much use. Be careful, sometimes people confuse them with idioms. These will "make sense" in real life, but idioms won't.Examples:As bright as the sunMany hands make light work.Opposites attractlive and learn.what goes around comes around.it could be worse.time will tellall is fair in love and warhaste makes wastelife is unfairopposites attract.As light as a feathera phrase or word that has lost its original effectiveness or power from overusebasically when you use something too much and it's gone as some people describe it "corny"A cliche is :A phrase, expression or idea that has been overworked. Something that is trite, stereotyped or hackneyed.A phrase, expression, or idea that has been overused to the point of losing it's intended force.Cliches can include analogies or proverbial relationships such as "as American as apple pie" or "a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush"."Deader than a doornail" "Flat as a pancake" "Up a creek without a paddle" "Tall, dark and handsome"A cliché (from French, klɪ'ʃe) is a phrase, expression, or idea that has been overused to the point of losing its intended force or novelty, especially when at some time it was considered distinctively forceful or novel. The term is generally used in a negative context."Cliché" applies also to almost any situation, plot device, subject, characterization, figure of speech, or object-in short, any sign-that has become overly familiar or commonplace. Because the novelty or frequency of an expression's use varies across different times and places, whether or not it is a cliché depends largely on who uses it, the context in which it is used, and who is making the judgment. The meaning of a particular cliché may shift over time, often leading to confusion or misuse.A cliché is also a term historically used in printing, for a printing plate cast from movable type. This is also called a stereotype.[1]. When letters were set one at a time it made sense to cast a phrase used over and again as one single slug of metal. That constantly repeated phrase was known as a cliché.
