[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Chai tea is not a thing, it’s chai or tea. [/quote] It's redundant. Chai is Indian tea - chai literally means tea. Just call it Tea Tea or Chai Chai - it's no different than saying Chai Tea. [/quote] In the United States, we call it chai tea. Just like naan bread.[/quote] I know not one person who says "naan bread." [/quote] NP, I hear it plenty. There are myriad other examples of technically redundant phrases in colloquial English... ATM Machine, "Please RSVP", rice pliaf, shrimp scampi, etc... but while those technicalities are mildly amusing asides, nobody is interested in hearing from the pedant who insists on "correcting" others' common usage of these phrases/terms.[/quote]
