Here I'm sharing term “A non-sequitur”.

Here I'm sharing term “A non-sequitur”.
 
   Here “non” means not and “sequitur” means to follow  Is a Latin term which means it does not follow it is a conversation and a literary device often used for comedy purposes.

Example:
   Maria drives a car. She must be a wealthy person.
       David eats broccoli. David should love to eat meat.
     
       The sentences do not follow a proper sequence in non sequitur and words do not give the same meaning as readers suppose them to do.
  
This term means fallacy(absurd) and it is used in logic ,the term itself is absurd and it is a comment that this term because of its apparent lack of meaning also means absurd .It also means being humourous and confusing.


 
    Thank u..
