Irony is the use of words that are the opposite of their intended meanings. The example provided above is an example of;

  • Situational irony

The example provided above is known as situational irony. Situational irony occurs when the results obtained during an event are the opposite of what should be expected.

In the case of the English settlers described, situational irony is the case because the passage reported that they took good care of their teeth, but the findings from the archaeologists show that their use of tooth powders resulted in tooth decay.

The opposite of the intended result is therefore the case. So, this is situational irony.

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

In Things Fall Apart and in his later novels, Achebe wanted to counter demeaning and incorrect stereotypes of his people and Eurocentric presentations of the confrontation between the Ibo of Nigeria and the British intruders. In his novels, Achebe admits, he strives for artistic excellence but also wants to give a message. Just as the oral tradition of the Ibo people served their society by sustaining its values, so the modern Ibo, writing in English, should serve Ibo society.  *PLEASE WRITE IN YOUR OWN WORDS*!

The author's claim is that media reports on violence and mayhem lead people to think the world is getting worse.

The line "Say that health and wealth have missed me" is an example of _____. iambic pentameter iambic tetrameter trochaic pentam
alekssr [168]
The answer is 'trochaic tetrameter'. Trochaic because trochee consists of a sequence of first stressed and then unstressed syllables: SAY that HEALTH and WEALTH have MISSED me - words in capital letters are stressed, the rest of them are unstressed.
Tetrameter means that there are 8 syllables. One meter = two syllables. And tetra, meaning four, must have 8 syllables.
