Abstract
Irony is a form of mixed communication that expresses implicit meaning through the integration of verbal and nonverbal means, since these means together transform semantic contradiction into a hidden pragmatic purpose. In linguistics, irony is classified as a pragmatic phenomenon in which the contradiction between the directive purpose (the explicit meaning in the sentence) and the implicative purpose (the true intention) is the main one.
