Question

what does the verbal irony in this text suggest?
\someone had better turn on the heat,\ anne said, sweat glistening on her face.
the temperature was too warm.
the temperature was too cool.

Explanation:

Verbal irony occurs when a speaker says the opposite of what is true. Anne has sweat on her face, indicating warmth, yet she says to turn on the heat. This irony suggests the actual temperature is too warm, as her statement contradicts the physical sign of warmth (sweat).

Answer:

The temperature was too warm.
