Why is pre-prepared redundant?

The term pre prepared has appeared in my everyday life lately. This is about my preference and I don’t care what happens with my anecdotes.

Is there any meaning of ‘pre’ by prefixes?

Is the use of java increasing?

Why hasn’t the world changed since the First World War?

What is the answer for “prepared”?

What is definition? From Collins :

Prepare vb

  1. to make ready or suitable in advance for a particular purpose or for some, use, event, etc, to prepare a meal; to prepare to go.
  2. to put together using parts or ingredients; compose or construct
  3. (tr), to equip or outfit, as for an expedition
  4. (Music, other) (tr) music to soften the impact of (a dissonant note) by the use of preparation
  5. be prepared (followed by an infinitive) to be willing and able (to do something): I’m not prepared to disclose these figures.

When use is in terms of those definitions, the only definition that explicitly mention time (“in advance”) is the first one. Can also refer to prepare words in definitions 2 and 3, but use it as described, in instances, and with less explanation would it be more effective and more appropriate? What is said for a “pre-prepared lunch”? The word we use and see by means of “put together using parts or ingredients in advance. ”

I would usually use pre-prepared slide of my presentation if I am going to go to the mall and get some nice quality slides, but I’m not going to use them by accident. Is saying “reused” the slides implies that they have been used before? I will have used them, in the next paragraph How does it mean that my slides were pre-prepared before the presentation started?

A definition for prepared as an adjective

adj

ready for something that is likely to happen, done or made preparatively

And preprepared as an adjective:

prepared in advance

Selectively(!) Combining the adjective definitions, we can say that “preprepared” means:

ready for something that is likely to happen, made ready in advance

So you are not just ready, you deliberately made preparations in advance.

What is an ngram? Is it’s usage IS increasing, but it’s still not a patch on “prepared in advance”.

I’m thinking of using “pre-prepared”, and I’m going to be so careful of it as will use “old adage “.
