English

Answer:

Verbal irony is when someone says something but means the opposite

EX: sarcasm

Verbal irony in "The Story of an Hour" comes right at the end when the doctor says that Mrs. Mallard died of the "joy that kills." This is an example of verbal irony as the statement can be interpreted in a different way from what it was intended to mean.

Dramatic irony is when the audience knows something the character(s) don't

EX: when you get in trouble at school but you tell you're parents that you were good... But, they already got a phone call of your trouble.

When Mrs. Mallard will not allow Josephine to help her upstairs, it seems that she is so grief-stricken that she wishes to be alone.

Explanation:

hope this helps
