What does Tragic really mean?

Tragic is a word that we use to describe something really sad or terrible. It's like when something really bad happens and it makes us feel really upset and sorry for the people involved. It's kind of like when you accidentally drop your ice cream cone and it falls on the ground, except way, way worse.

Imagine a story where a brave hero tries to save people from a burning building, but unfortunately doesn't make it out alive. That would be considered a tragic event. It would be really sad for the hero's friends and family, and for us too, because we wanted the hero to survive and be okay.

Tragic can also describe a situation where something goes wrong and causes a lot of pain and suffering. For example, if your house catches on fire and you lose all your belongings, that would be a tragic event. It's not just sad for you, but it's also really unfortunate because you didn't want that to happen.

So in simpler terms, "tragic" means something really sad or terrible that happens. It's like a big storm cloud hanging over people's heads, bringing sadness and despair.
