There is a rule: avoid redundancy when writing or speaking, so you can use synonyms, to prevent it. So you can say caminar, andar, pasear, etc. in a text without repeating the same word. I Spanish, if you can't avoid redundancy, there is a sentence used when writing: "valga la redundancia". For instance:
Finalmente el equipo local ha sido el ganador. Los locales
–valga la redundancia- golearon a su rival…”

And sorry for my redundancy here, I'm not so good at English
