Verbal Irony

 

IRONY

 

 

Verbal irony is the use of words to mean something other than their literal meaning. Most sarcastic comments are ironic. For instance, the person who says, "Nice going, Einstein," isn't really paying anyone a compliment.

 

 

Dramatic irony is the suspenseful knowledge that a character is unaware of. It's when you know the boogeyman is hiding in the attic, but the hero of the movie doesn't know that.

 

 

 

Situational irony happens when the actual result of an action is not the expected result. Irony of situation is often humorous, such as when a prank backfires on the prankster.
