Explanation of absurd
- Absurd refers to something that is illogical, irrational, or senseless. It signifies a lack of reason or coherence, often in a way that is laughably or ridiculously unreasonable. Absurdity challenges conventional logic and can be used to critique or satirize aspects of human behavior, society, or concepts.
