%X In the history of opera, in Italy, opera seria and opera buffa are the two different opera genres that differ thematically and structurally. Of these two main genres, opera buffa has been described as ¡°comic opera¡±, and has become a main title among the operas that are different in terms of practice and style are developed as opposed to the serious style and defined with different names in different countries are included. On the other hand, the genre defined as ¡°op¨¦ra comique¡± in France creates a conceptual confusion due to the use of the word ¡°comic¡±. Although the word comic evokes the concept of humour in minds, the fact that many operas included in op¨¦ra comique genre do not possess the characteristics of humour has created the need for an explanation of the concept. This study will help to better understand the op¨¦ra comique genre which is still the most popular opera genre since the 18th century, by shedding light on the conceptual confusion caused by the definitions in different languages made for the comic opera genre
