    Yes you are right - it is redundant. In fact the term "cooperative biological engagement program" is what we call in English - gobbledegook. It is a bunch of words that are used together to give the impression of being sophisticated or intelligent. Most people have no idea what the author means. Usually gobbledegook is found in government documents or educational documents.

    The change of a word that begins with the letter d to the letter r also applies to single words. For example, dami means plent, a lot, etc. But when used as an adjective the da changes to r, thus marami. Same is true for dumi meaning dirty. The adjective is marumi.

    Use of Pag, pagpa and pagpapa prefix I understand how the prefix pag creates a noun from a verb, umalis - pag-alis (to leave - leaving or departure), maglaro - paglalaro (to play - playing). I even understand how the first syllable is duplicated for verbs that are mag verbs, laro - root, maglaro - to play, paglalaro - playing. However in written text I often see the prefix pagpa and pagpapa. For example: Nang ipagtapat ko po sa aking anak ang plano naming PAGPAPAkasal ay humagulgol po siya ... Inakala naman ng mga kasamahan na nagbibiro lamang ang biktima at hindi pinansin ang kataga ng 15-anyos na tinedyer na maagang PAGPAsalubong kay kamatayan. May mga biktima kasi ng aksidente o emergency sa China gaya ng ilang senior citizens na kinakasuhan pa ang mga tumulong sa kanila para may maipantustos sila sa kanilang gamot at PAGPAPAospital. Why is PAGPA and PAGPAPA used and what is the difference between them? Salamat.

    A recession is a time period in which a country suffers an economic decline. Recessions usually occur every 20 to 25 years apart. They last for a few years. However if a country goes into a recession and within a year or two enters another recession it is called a double dip recession. Likewise, a triple dip recession occurs when the country comes out of the second recession and then goes into a third one withing a year or two.

    "Suffering a delayed reaction" means that the effect of an action, in this case a gunshot wound, was not immediately felt. Sometimes the same is said when taking medicine. The patient felt a delayed reaction to the drug.

    The same is true for the words daw/raw (was said) and din/rin (also). When the preceding word ends in a consonant, the "d" version is used. When the preceding word ends in a vowel, the "r" version is used. In fact this change from d to r can be seen in other words as well, such as dami (plenty) and its adjective form marami (many).

    Separable and inseparable are opposites. I have rarely heard the word "separable" used, but it could be used to describe that two objects are "separable" even though they are usually attached to each other. The word "inseparable" is usually used to suggest that two people are always together. My wife and I are inseparable. My daughter and her girlfriend are inseparable.
