A deadwood and pointless repetition simply means the use of synonymous words or phrases more than once in a sentence.
1. At this point (in time), we have no travel plans. The phrase "in time" is a pointless repetition because it serves the same purpose as "at this point" in a sentence and as such it should be dropped.
2. In my opinion, (I think) depression is a terrible kind of illness. The phrase "I think" is a pointless repetition because it's simply a person's personal opinion or idea.
3. We have ignored and (neglected) the basic fundamental essentials for too long a period of time. Ignore and neglect are synonymous i.e means the same thing and as such shouldn't be used together, so as to avoid pointless repetition.
4. Men and women of (both sexes) must join the combat to fight for a better world. The phrase "men and women" connotes two sexes and as such, it is needless adding both sexes in the same sentence.
5. Sleepy and tired, he looked drained and (exhausted). Drained and exhausted are synonymous i.e means the same thing and as such shouldn't be used together, so as to avoid pointless repetition.
