Abstract

In this article, we'll define and analyze the assorted kinds of irony and the way to use them in your writing. These types include dramatic, situational, and verbal irony, together with their offshoots and related terms. We’ll also give samples of each type in literature, films, and other media. Finally, we’ll debunk the concept of "rain on your wedding day” — which could be inconvenient but certainly isn’t ironic.
