A repeating decimal is one in after the decimal point,
the same digit or group of digits repeats forever.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?

When you convert a fraction to a decimal sometimes the decimal repeats forever. For example 1/3 as a decimal = 0.333333333.... (or 0.3 "recurring"). Another example is 1/7=0.142857142857.... (or 0.142857 recurring).
