Hello everyone. Please, could you try to explain the difference between the words "corny", "trite" and "hackneyed"?
From their definitions it seems to me that all of them mean something is repeated way too often + corny has a connotation of something being silly, trite has a connotation of something being insincere and hackneyed has a connotation of something being meaningless and mindlessly repeated? Do I understand it right?
What's your opinion on that? How would you differentiate them?
Thank you in advance for your help.
