Irony and Ambiguity

At first, I thought irony was well i really didnt know what it meant but I learned that this was wrong. Actually, irony is the difference between what the readers expect or what seems suitable and the reality of what happens. There are three types of irony verbal irony, situational irony, and drammatic irony. I also learned about ambiguity. I used to think ambiguity was like i said i didnt really know what it meant ,but I learned that ambiguity is a part of a text with multiple meaning in which something can be interpreted in a number of different ways . On my irony and ambiguity pretest, I was far below grade-level. On my posttest, I hope that I will be at grade-level.
