Template:StubA classical meaning of comedy is comical theater as in one of two types of Greek plays (the other is tragedy). Not necessarily funny, but ends happily.
A more popular modern meaning is the use of humor with an intent to provoke laughter in general.
A subset of comedy is unintentional comedy which happens when the subject is funny without meaning to be.
