Events that cause great sadness, suffering, or loss, often unexpectedly. In literature, tragedies are serious works with unhappy or disastrous endings.

用法与细微差别

Commonly used for both real-life events (natural disasters, personal loss) and literary works. Always plural or countable in form. 'Tragedy' is singular; 'tragedies' is plural. Avoid confusing 'tragedy' with 'drama'—tragedy is specifically sad or disastrous.
