At first, I thought irony was the unexpected, but I learned that this was wrong. Actually, irony is the difference between what the reader expects or what seems suitable and the reality of what happens There are three types of irony: situational, verbal, and dramatic. I also learned about ambiguity. I used to think ambiguity was the unexpected, but I was wrong I now know that ambiguity is a part of text with multiple meanings in which something can be interpreted in a number of different ways On my irony and ambiguity pretest, I was at-grade level. On my posttest, I hope that I will be above grade-level.
