👉 A tautologue is a type of linguistic construction that refers to an adjective or adverb that has no direct equivalent in the language. In other words, it is a word with multiple meanings and uses, often used in contexts where only one meaning is appropriate. For example, "tall" can be used as both a noun (meaning tall) and a verb (meaning to reach high). Similarly, "happy" can be used as an adjective or as a noun, depending on the context
