The irony in the short story "Beware of the Dog" by Roald Dahl lies in the fact that the main character, a Royal Air Force pilot named Peter Williamson, is unaware that he is actually the one being deceived. Despite his injuries and the care he receives from the hospital staff, he remains oblivious to the true intentions of those around him. The twist at the end reveals that he is not in an Allied hospital, but in an enemy hospital, being interrogated by the enemy. This dramatic irony adds depth to the story and highlights the theme of deception in wartime.
No
it means that the object is full of iron-very wrong. irony and iron are completely different things, though it's hard to explain irony.
Roald Dahl uses irony in "Lamb to the Slaughter" by setting up a seemingly innocent domestic scene which quickly turns dark and sinister. The humor in the story comes from the absurdity of the situation and the unexpected ways in which the protagonist reacts to her husband's betrayal. Dahl's use of irony and humor adds depth to the story and keeps the reader engaged until the shocking conclusion.
The word irony means saying one thing while showing another. The word ironic means that something happens in the opposite way that it was expected.
The irony in "The Landlady" by Roald Dahl is that the seemingly sweet and welcoming landlady is actually a cold-blooded killer who taxidermies her guests. The irony lies in the stark contrast between her inviting demeanor and her macabre true nature, catching both the characters in the story and readers off guard.

No, Lucille Clifton's poem "in the inner city" is not an example of dramatic irony. Dramatic irony occurs when the audience knows something that the characters in a literary work do not, leading to a contrast between what is expected to happen and what actually happens. This poem does not exhibit that particular type of irony.
Verbal irony is distinguished from situational irony and dramatic irony in that it is produced intentionally by speakers. For instance, if a speaker exclaims, "I'm not upset!" but reveals an upset emotional state through her voice while truly trying to claim she's not upset, it would not be verbal irony by virtue of its verbal manifestation (it would, however, be situational irony).
