Given that oxymoron is an oft-proscribed term for the more precise contradiction in terms, should we not rename this "Category:English contradictions in terms"? The contradictions in these phrases are usually accidental or come about by a different interpretation of the words. Oxymorons in the strict sense are not like that. — Paul G (talk) 06:45, 25 August 2019 (UTC)
Ill health[edit]
I don't think this should be on the list. The sense in which 'health' is used in this saying is, to my understanding, more along the lines of 'condition' or 'state of being'. One might say 'good health' as an antonym of 'ill health'. Vanitasvanitatum69 (talk) 18:39, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
