1 Answer

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Verbal irony is when someone says something that is sharply different from the reality of the situation. One example of verbal irony is when Juliet tells her mother, "I will not marry yet; and, when I do, I swear it shall be Romeo, whom you know I hate, rather than Paris." This remark is ironic because we know that Juliet is planning to marry Romeo that very night
