Here's a breakdown:
* Cliché: A phrase, idea, or expression that has been used so often that it has lost its original impact and become predictable and boring.
* Trite: Overused and lacking in originality or freshness.
Here are some examples of clichés:
* "Time flies when you're having fun."
* "It's raining cats and dogs."
* "He's as strong as an ox."
* "She's as beautiful as a sunrise."
* "The early bird gets the worm."
While clichés can be helpful for quick communication, they often make writing and speech sound unoriginal and uninspired. It's best to use them sparingly and try to find fresh ways to express your ideas.
