One example of irony in "The Scarlet Ibis" is when Doodle is given his bird-like name, but ultimately proves his strength and determination like the ibis. Another example is how the brother teaches Doodle to walk only to later feel regret for pushing him too hard. These instances demonstrate the contrast between expectations and outcomes in the story which adds depth to the themes of pride and regret.
an example of an hyperbole is a deliberate exaggeration or overstatement!!

The three types of ironies in "The Catbird Seat" are dramatic irony, situational irony, and verbal irony. Dramatic irony occurs when the audience knows something that the characters do not. Situational irony involves a contrast between what is expected to happen and what actually happens. Verbal irony is when a character says one thing but means another.
He won the lottery but lost the ticket.
examples of situational irony: the 6th sense, titanic, shallow hal
Verbal irony is when a character says something directly contradictory. There are many examples in Fahrenheit 451.
One example of irony in "The Scarlet Ibis" is the irony of the narrator's character. He shows kindness and compassion towards Doodle, yet his actions ultimately lead to Doodle's tragic fate. Another example is the symbolism of the scarlet ibis itself, as it is a beautiful and exotic bird that tragically dies in the story, foreshadowing Doodle's own fate.
Sure! Here's an example: "The fire station burned down." This statement is ironic because fire stations are supposed to prevent fires, not be destroyed by them.
In "Clay" by James Joyce, some examples of irony include Maria feeling unfulfilled and disconnected despite trying to improve her life, the expectation of a fun Halloween party turning out to be disappointing, and Maria receiving a seemingly thoughtful gift that highlights her mundane existence. These instances highlight the theme of the disconnect between aspirations and reality.
Verbal irony: "Wow, what a beautiful day," said on a rainy and stormy day. Situational irony: A fire station catching on fire or a lifeguard drowning are examples of situational irony where the opposite of what is expected to happen occurs.
