Example: Ratatouille. Remy is a rat that cooks in a kitchen. People would typically be grossed out by this, so the fact that Remi is a master chef is unexpected. 
2. Dramatic Irony: Readers or viewers are aware of something that a character doesn't know.
Example. Snow White. The audience knows that the wicked stepmother cursed the apple, but Snow White does not.
3. Verbal Irony: Someone says something that deliberately contradicts what that person actually means.
Example: Shrek. In the movie, Donkey asks if he can stay with him. Shrek replies "Of course!" but he actually meant "no."]]> 2021-03-23 12:42:34 UTC https://padlet.com/natalieshelton105/2kzr1aw8oan21i0f/wish/1342550878 Practice: Is it situational, dramatic, or verbal irony? natalieshelton105 https://padlet.com/natalieshelton105/2kzr1aw8oan21i0f/wish/1342732359 1.
