The style of <em>C</em>omedy is witty and mainly based on love. <em>The dialouge that the characters use plays upon everyday situations. </em><em>C</em>omic characters don't evolve <em>during</em> the course of the play<em>,</em> and their nature<em>s are </em>revealed <em>through</em> their names. The <em>playwrite</em> mocks the <em>attitudes and situations people find themselves in. Most</em> of these <em>situations begin</em> with misfortune, but in the end the protagonist doesn't die.
The <em>style of Tragedy</em> <em>is</em> completely different. The language is solemn<em>;</em> the <em>heros</em> or heroins are never <em>commoners,</em> and their <em>lives are</em> dominated by fate. In some <em>Tragedies</em> the main character could be a "tragic <em>hero</em>" because he lives in suffering and madness caused by his flaws and in the end he dies or commits siucide. The villain<em>s</em> generally expiate <em>their guilt through</em> death. These deaths are based on the concept of catharsis: a Greek word meaning "purification".
