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.
