What are the different types of irony in much ado about nothing?

* Verbal irony: This is when a character says something that means the opposite of what they intend. For example, in Act I, Scene I, Beatrice says to Benedick, "I wonder that you will still be talking; silence has not a word too much." This is ironic because Beatrice is actually telling Benedick to be quiet, but she is doing so in a way that is very verbose and ironic.

* Situational irony: This is when the outcome of a situation is very different from what was expected. For example, in Act IV, Scene I, Claudio accuses Hero of being unfaithful to him. This is ironic because Hero is actually innocent, and Claudio is unaware that Don Pedro and Don John have tricked him.

* Dramatic irony: This is when the audience knows more about what is going on than the characters in the play. For example, in Act II, Scene III, the audience knows that Beatrice and Benedick are in love with each other, even though they themselves are not aware of it.
