redundancy theory of truth

The redundancy theory of truth suggests that saying "X is true" adds no extra meaning beyond just stating X itself. In other words, asserting "It is true that snow is white" is equivalent to simply saying "Snow is white." The term "truth" doesn’t serve as a separate concept but is redundant, because confirming a statement doesn't change its content; it merely emphasizes that the statement is correct. This perspective views "truth" as unnecessary for understanding language and meaning, reducing "truth" to a linguistic or logical convenience rather than an independent property.
