Answer:
Oxymoron is a figure of speech in which two opposite ideas are joined to create an effect. The common oxymoron phrase is a combination of an adjective proceeded by a noun with contrasting meanings, such as “cruel kindness,” or “living death”. However, the contrasting words/phrases are not always glued together.
Example: The teacher could see that the student was clearly confused.
In the above sentence, the oxymoron 'clearly confused' is used.
Hope this helps!
