The example is, “As soon as my mother told me I was going to have a baby brother I replied, ‘This is going to be an exciting experience. Nothing can be better than this.’

This is verbal irony because in the example the child is stating, “This is going to be an exciting experience,” but he doesn’t feel this way because all the attention is going to be off of him. He’ll also have to help out more around the house, help out with his mother more, and help take care of his baby brother. The child is going to have more responsibilities which is why he stated, “Nothing can be better than this.” ]]> 2016-09-28 15:37:07 UTC https://padlet.com/kmcgruther1/irony_examples_56/wish/127008352 The Kool Aid Squad/Group #3 https://padlet.com/kmcgruther1/irony_examples_56/wish/127008584 Dramatic Irony

Example: Caroline was already late to school and was in a rush. She got her book bag ready and ran outside, but the bus had left her. “Bring an umbrella!” her mother exclaimed. Caroline was already out the door. Going back to get an umbrella would only make her lose time. On her way to cross the street to school, the rain began to pour aggressively and she arrived to school soaking wet. “Oh what a wonderful day I am having!”she said sarcastically.

Explanation: This example defines the sarcasm that is being used when Caroline says “Oh what a wonderful day I am having!” In the example that we provided, Caroline was late to school, missed the bus, forgot her umbrella and was drenched from the rain that poured heavily. This signifies that verbal irony is related to sarcastically speaking or acting.
