We know a man scattered from Basseinaya Street. Who will refuse to admit that he is absurd, absurd, but at the same time sweet? Children who read S. S. Marshak’s poem for the first time probably laugh heartily, while adults can be sad. But scattered from the Basin was remembered to us only because of the introduction. Further we will talk about the absurd, and it will be interesting, because the examples are supposed to be completely different.
Value
First, let's try to catch this sense of the absurdity of what is happening. Suppose that a girl asks a guy about the prospect of their relationship, and instead of answering, he puts a frying pan over his head (and yet the shadow of the scattered haunts us). Of course, this is a strange and absurd, non-mature reaction. But such actions can be saturated with meaning. The young man does not want to talk about the prospects of a relationship during breakfast, but he also does not want to explain his reluctance, so he put on a frying pan.
We understood what an absurd situation is, and therefore, it is time to move on to supporting an explanatory dictionary, where “absurd” is interpreted as “ridiculous, awkward”. The dictionary decides to get rid of us, referring to synonyms, but we will not forgive him like that. We decipher the first adjective in the definition - “ridiculous”: “not justified by common sense”. And finally, we have a clue! If you are acting ridiculous and contrary to common sense, then you are absurd. If a person acts this way all the time, he has, then, his character is absurd, this is obvious!
Synonyms
Serious people annoying any absurdity. If a person does not want to play according to the rules of society, then it is difficult to manage, that is, absurdity is rebellion, but at the same time one cannot rely on such a person, and this is a serious drawback. We'll talk about what awkward means a bit later, but for now, the time for replacements. There were already synonyms for the adjective, but we will list them:
- stupid;
- absurd;
- stupid;
- clumsy;
- awkward;
- awkward;
- unreasonable;
- stupid.
As the reader can guess, there are much more replacements, but we leave others for independent study. There is nothing touching in synonyms. Nevertheless, “awkward” is fun, albeit a little sad. Now let's see the various options when the reaction to events is ridiculous.
Examples of situations
Human life is full of absurdities. And concrete examples, probably, are superfluous here, but nevertheless we will give them so that the reader has an image that abstract knowledge will catch on to:
- The groom did not come for registration because he overslept.
- The student did not learn the subject, because he did not have time.
- The man did not come to work, because a cat fell asleep on his lap, and he did not want to disturb the animal.
This is interesting. The examples tell us quite clearly that even the truth is absurd, and this is sad.
By the way, if you need an example of an absurd person, then this is the hero of the movie "Liar, Liar" (1997) Fletcher Reed. Remember the moment when Fletcher beats himself in the toilet hoping to get a delay in hearing the case? And when the guards actually brought him, the judge asks him who did it. And he answers, among other things: "This is awkward." And we know that "awkward" is a synonym for "awkward." And we leave the reader to think whether Jim Carrey himself is absurd or not.
