Answer:

Oxymoron

Explanation:

Oxymoron is a figure of speech in which contradictory or incongruous words are combined. In the given sentence, an example of oxymoron is <em>alone together. </em>When someone is alone, they are on their own, with no one else present. However, the word <em>together</em> implies that two or more people are present. This is why it's unusual to see these words combined. Their meanings are contradictory, which makes this an oxymoron.
