3 types of Irony

• Verbal Irony
• Situational Irony
• Dramatic Irony

22
Verbal Irony

• The simplest kind of irony.
• You use it everyday when you say one thing and
  really mean another.
• It is essentially sarcasm.
• Example
• When you appear to be sick and someone asks you
  if youre okay. You say Of course! But in the
  meantime you are vomiting and fainting.

23
Situational Irony

• Occurs when a situation turns out to be the
  opposite of what you thought it would be.
• Examples
• The teachers daughter is a high school drop out.
• The police chiefs wife gets caught stealing.
• The chef wont eat his/her own cooking.
• The barber always needs a hair cut himself.

24
Dramatic Irony

• Occurs when the audience knows something that the
  characters in the story, on the screen, or on the
  stage do not know.
• The audience is more aware of whats going on
  than the people in the production.
• This is used to engage the audience and keep them
  actively involved in the storyline.

25
Dramatic Ironycontinued

• In all of the Friday the 13th movies, we know
  Jason is in the woods. The characters do not.
  When they go out into the woods we are afraid for
  them because we know that they are in danger. We
  scream for them to run, we get excited when they
  fall, we cringe when we know that Jason is right
  behind the tree.
