Question

Hi!

I was wondering if the following phrase would be considered an oxymoron:

Endless Days

If that is not an oxymoron, then how about this phrase?: Sleepless Nights

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

no becuase maybe days are endless?

and no because the nights may very well be sleepless.

Buy 'defening silence' is an oxymoron.

so is night days or day nights



they mush be conjoining contradictory terms (as in `deafening silence')

Answer 2

Sleepless nights wouldn't be an oxymoron because some people really can't sleep at night! Endless days would be an oxymoron, unless looked at from a philosophical view. If looik at from a philosophical view, than endless days wouldn't be an oxymoron because from such a view, tomorrow never comes.
