At first I thought irony meant that what were the situations in the store and why did it happen, but I learned I was wrong because irony really means the difference between what the readers expect or what seems suitable and the reality of what happens. There are also three different kinds of irony which are verbal irony, situational irony, and dramatic irony.
I also learned what ambiguity is because I use to think it meant a fat guy eating a hamburger but I found out I was wrong because ambiguity means a part of a text with meaningful meaning in which something can be interpreted in a number of different ways.
On my pretest of ambiguity and irony I was way below grade. On my posttest I hope I get a c or higher grade level.
