The first one is situational that would be like South Park. The second one is like sarcasm this happens a lot. The last one is dramatic this would be like any horror movie.

Verbal irony means it’s sarcasm. An example is Squidward off of spongebob. Situational irony means you expect one thing and the opposite happens. An example is fire truck on fire. Dramatic irony means you know something the character doesn’t. An example is The Great Gatsby.

There is dramatic irony which in cases is like horror movies. Verbal irony is like sarcasm. And situational irony is when you expect something to happen and something else happens so like a action movie.

Dramatic- audience knows something character does not. Romeo and Juliet
Situational- when one thing is expected but something else does. The Gift Of The Magi
Verbal- says one thing and means another a Modest Proposal

Irony. An be expressed in different way, verbal is someone saying something but meaning different. Situational is when something happens that is not what expected.

Situational is when you expect something to happens and another thing happens. ex) in the movie up they say speak to the dog expecting it to bark and it speaks English. Verbal irony is saying something to mean another. ex) squidward is very sarcastic. Dramatic irony is when you know more than the character. Ex) any scary movie when the characters go into a new room.

The three different types of irony are: Situational, Verbal, and Dramatic. The first one is when something unexpected happens. Such as the movie Cars when he stops in front of the finish line to go back to get another car. Verbal is sarcasm and can be shown by Grown Ups and the characters sarcasm. Dramatic is when we know something the characters don’t. This can be shown by horror movies or the office

The three types of irony are situational, verbal and dramatic. Situational example could be a pilot that has a fear of heights. An example of verbal irony is in beauty and the beast and gaston say “I just don’t derserve you” when in reality Gaston doesn’t deserve Belle. For dramatic irony in Romeo and Juliet the aduence knows that Juliet is in a drugged sleep but Romeo thinks she’s dead.

First you got situational, this is when you expect one thing but another happens, ex. Fire truck on fire.
Verbal, when you shout out to a ugly man the he is “handsome”
Dramatic, any interview in The Office.

A fire truck on fire is kind of ironic.

The first one would be the office. They do a mockumentary and make fun of alll the aspects of a documentary.

Dramatic Irony- in vampire diaries when Katherine goes into the cave toget the cure from Cilus’s some what stoned body.
Situational Irony- in just one day we think Willem is going to be there but he’s not.
Verbal Irony- I like school when you actually don’t.

Verbal irony is like sarcasm. An example is when shrek told donkey he could stay sarcastically. Situational is when you expect one 5ing to happen but something else happens. Like in Nemo when the shark dose not eat them right away. Dramatic irony is when you now something the characters don’t. Like in the book dear Evan Hanson you now the truth but everyone doesn’t know.

Situational irony- where you expect one thing to happen but something else does: Building montage
Dramatic Irony- Where the reader or watcher knows something the characters don’t: The Thing
Verbal Irony- Saying something but meaning another: South Park

The three different types of irony are situational, verbal, and dramatic. Situational, it is when something happens in way that was not expected like Remmy from Rattitui is a rat and master chef. Verbal is sarcasm, such as when Shrek says Donkey can stay with him when he really means no. Dramatic Irony is what horror movies need, when someone knows something that others don’t. An example of this is in Joker, when Arther Fleck has mental problems and will become the Joker no matter what, the audience knows his eventual outcome but no one not even Arther knows right away. Or how Joker, Batman’s greatest counterpart, was associated in killing Bruce Wane’s parents that help turn Bruce into Batman.
