All About Literature.
The charitable Serina Wai provided me with a link to this website that furnishes you with an abundance of information regarding literary terms.
Oh yes, she is 'kiasu', and so am I.
They gave some truly magnificent examples of oxymorons. Here are a couple of my favourites.
- Jumbo shrimp
- Act naturally
- Found missing
- British Fashion
- Christian Scientists
- Temporary tax increase
- Rap music
- Microsoft works
- New York Culture
- Religious tolerance
- Airline food
- Government organisation
- Small crowd
- Military intelligence
- Butt head
- Passive aggression
F. Y. I: An oxymoron is conceived when two contradictory words are put together.
