Anybody know a good one word synonym for oxymoron? Oxymoron must be the only word in English that has the root moron and yet often has a positive connotation. For all your French speakers out there, what's the French equivalent of oxymoron? How about German, I bet they have a great 40 letter word for it. The word looks Greek to me. Any Latin experts (Elmer?) know what it is in Latin? Bye Jim
