In Scene 5, when Juliet wants the nurse to find out who Romeo is:
"Go ask his name: if he be married.
My grave is like to be my wedding bed."

Friar : " come, is the bride ready to go to church ?" pg. 109 line 36
Romeo and Juliet contains dramatic irony. The best example of dramatic irony in the play is in Act 5 when Romeo sees Juliet and thinks that she is dead because of the potion she took earlier that day to make her appear dead. Romeo sees this and then stabs himself and when Juliet wakes up and sees that Romeo has killed himself she then commits suicide also.
In "Romeo and Juliet," verbal irony enhances both suspense and foreshadowing by allowing characters to express sentiments that contrast sharply with reality. For instance, when Juliet says she would rather die than marry Paris, it foreshadows her tragic fate, creating tension as the audience knows more than the characters. This use of irony heightens the emotional stakes and keeps the audience engaged, as they anticipate the consequences of the characters' misunderstandings and miscommunications.
