Overdone
Answer:
TRITE
Hint:
Think of a word that describes something so frequently used or repeated that it has lost its original impact or freshness.
Explanation:
"Overdone" hints at something used so often it’s lost its original impact. The answer "TRITE" fits because it describes ideas or phrases that are clichéd or worn out from overuse. Think of it like a joke told too many times—it’s no longer fresh, just tired and predictable. The clue plays on the literal meaning of "overdone" to point to a word that means exactly that.
