Comedy

Comedy is a genre of literature, film, and performance that aims to entertain and amuse audiences through humor. It often involves the use of comedic devices such as exaggeration, satire, wit, and incongruity to provoke laughter. Comedy can take various forms, including stand-up, sketch shows, sitcoms, and comedic films. The themes often reflect the absurdities of life, human behavior, and social norms, allowing for both entertainment and a critique of societal issues. Traditionally, comedy is characterized by a light-hearted tone, and it often concludes with a positive resolution, in contrast to tragedy, which typically explores serious and somber themes.
