What Is The Difference Between Tragedy And Comedy?

I know that in the traditional sense, a tragedy is a play where one or more of the characters die (for example, Othello, Julius Caesar, Hamlet, Macbeth, Romeo and Juliet). A comedy doesn't necessarily have to be funny, it just means that all of the characters live to see the end of the play(Midsummer Night's Dream, Merchant of Venice, Comedy of Errors, All's Well That Ends Well).

That's the biggest difference that I know of. Hope this helps!

Tragedy: Sad ending, usually everyone dies. Example- Romeo and Juliet and Hamlet the Prince of Denmark.

Comedy: Humor is usually involved; a happy ending sometimes.
