What are the verbal irony, situational irony and dramatic in the short story The Open Window? Explain with suitable quote.

If you do your own homework, one day you might pass your course.

You will not learn anything correctly if you just ask on here. Do your research!

He's right maj!

[1ozzy]

And I'm grumpier than him ^^^

[maj07]

It's better to update my own answer here.

Yes Maj07, do your research, post your answer, ask for opinions.

I'm sure lots of people will help "fine tune" your answer for you.

Good luck with your studies, hope you succeed.

[waterboatman]

Your tutor is the only one that should do that maj.
In time I hope you will realise that these two grumpy old gits know what they are talking about, ;o}

I love doing research when I have a query. It's surprising what you can come across!

[waterboatman]

I've just seen your last post. I agree with the other grumpy old git! You'll no doubt gather from that we are great friends! albeit on opposite sides of the world.

Another Saki-ism.... (I like this one), "“The people of Crete unfortunately make more history than they can consume locally.”
