Answer:

4 examples of Verbal irony

“What nice weather we're having!”

Oh, fantastic!”

"We don't get along!"

"I'll die if I can't go to the concert!"

3 examples of situational irony

1. A fire station burns down.This is unexpected because one would assume the fire chief would keep his own building safe.

2. A marriage counselor files for divorce.This is ironic because the expectation is that a professional who coaches couples through rough patches would herself have a strong marriage.

3. The police station gets robbed.Again, the expectation is that professional crime fighters would be able to help themselves; in this case, by securing their own station.

3 examples of Dramatic Irony

1. Girl in a horror film hides in a closet where the killer just went (the audience knows the killer is there, but she does not).

2. In Romeo and Juliet, the audience knows that Juliet is only asleep-not dead-but Romeo does not, and he kills himself.

3. In Macbeth, King Duncan says that he trusts Macbeth ("he was a gentleman on whom I built an absolute trust), but the audience knows that Macbeth is plotting to kill Duncan.

Hope it Helps :)
