Cliché

A cliché is a saying, expression, idea, or element of an artistic work which has been overused to the point of losing its original meaning or effect rendering it a stereotype, especially when at some earlier time it was considered meaningful or novel. The term is frequently used in modern culture for an action or idea which is expected or predictable, based on a prior event. It is likely to be used pejoratively. A cliché may sometimes be used in a work of fiction for comedic effect.

翻译：

Cliché是一個藝術作品的言論，思想，或元素经被過度使用而失去原有意義和作用說法，特別是在先前的某個時候它被認為有意義或有新穎。這個詞經常用於形容現代文化的一個能被預測到的行動或想法。它也可能用於貶義。Cliché有時也會用在小說里来产生喜劇效果。
