Answer 2

Answer:

Dramatic or structural irony.

Explanation:

When the reader or audience knows more than the character or subject does, this is called dramatic or structural irony.

An example is when someone is reading a book and doesn't see that there is a hole in the ground in front of them! They don't see it and fall right in. The reader would know this was about to happen, but the character didn't know. This is an example of dramatic or structural irony.

The writer lets the reader know what is happening but hides it from the character.

I hope this helps! :)
