Irony by Nordberg https://padlet.com/jnordberg/irony Made with a wish on a star en-us 2017-03-23 12:02:20 UTC 2023-02-18 14:37:53 UTC hello@padlet.com Kennedy, Hannah, Tori https://padlet.com/jnordberg/irony/wish/162091640 Verbal Irony: A person says or writes one thing and means another.
Example: "He's as nice as a lion to his prey" This is ironic because he is saying that he is nice but he really  doesn't mean it. We know he doesn't mean it because he says "as a lion to his prey" and lions are not nice to their prey. 
Dramatic Irony: Irony understood by the audience but not grasped by the characters in the play/book/movie/etc. 
Example: In a scary movie, the character walks into a house and the audience knows the killer is in the house. This is dramatic irony because the audience knows the killer is in the house but the character entering the house does not. 
Situational Irony: Irony involving a situation in which actions have an effect that is opposite from what was intended, so that the outcome is contrary to what was expected.
Example: Ralph wakes up late and thinks he is going to be late to school. After rushing around to get dressed, he realizes it is Saturday. This is ironic because we think he is going to be late to school because of his actions(waking up late and rushing to get dressed) but what actually happens is that he realizes its Saturday and doesn't have school.

In a movie where the detective doesn't know that his partner is the one the responsible for the crimes but the audience knows]]> 2017-03-23 12:16:35 UTC https://padlet.com/jnordberg/irony/wish/162092782 Olivia and Abi https://padlet.com/jnordberg/irony/wish/162092980 Dramatic irony is when the reader knows something the characters do not.

Situational irony is when something is supposed to happen but the opposite occurs 

Verbal irony is when someone says the opposite of what they mean

Examples:

Dramatic - In toy story the humans are unaware the toys can speak and move but the audience is aware. This is ironic because the plot is based upon this secret.

Situational- In the wizard of oz when the fire station burns down. They are supposed to put out fires which makes it ironic.

Verbal- Sarcasm such as saying "oh fantastic!" when the situation is actually very bad. It's ironic to state the opposite of what you mean.

Dramatic Irony: when the reader or audience knows what will happen while the characters do not.

Situational Irony: when something happens that is he opposite of what was expected.
Ex. When a sign saying "No Signs Are to be Posted on Public Property" is posted on public property.

Example: When an ambulance gets into a car crash on their way to help someone in their car crash.]]> 2017-03-23 12:21:46 UTC https://padlet.com/jnordberg/irony/wish/162094143 Sydney Gilbert https://padlet.com/jnordberg/irony/wish/162094550 Verbal Irony:

Example: One got in a car accident and said “Lucky me!” This is verbal irony because the person really means the opposite of what they're saying. It's no ones luck to actually get into a car accident.
Dramatic: irony that is inherent in speeches or a situation of a drama and understood by the audience but not grasped by the characters
Example: In a scary movie, the character walks into a house and the audience knows the killer is in the house. This dramatic irony because we know that the killer is in the house but the characters in the movie don't.
Situational: irony involving a situation in which actions have an effect that is opposite from what was intended, so that the outcome in contrary to what was expected.
Example: A fire station burns down. This is situational irony because you wouldn't think that a fire station would burn down if they have all the equipment they need to put out the fire. No one would expect that to happen.]]> 2017-03-23 12:24:42 UTC https://padlet.com/jnordberg/irony/wish/162095001 Taylore https://padlet.com/jnordberg/irony/wish/162095121 Verbal-someone says the opposite of what they feel example: soft like a brick.
