A combination of two words that do not typically belong together in the same sentence is known as an "oxymoron." Oxymorons are commonly used in literature and speech to create emphasis or provoke thought by joining contradictory terms. Some examples include "jumbo shrimp," "living dead," and "deafening silence."
Contradictory means in opposition. The two of them gave me contradictory information and I didn't know what to do.
