Answer:

Irony is an implied discrepancy between what is said and what is mean. (make sure to right in your one sentences so the teacher won't think it's copied).

Hyperbole

an expression that exaggerates describes something as greatly magnified or dished beyond the strict line of truth. (same rules applied here).

Answer:

hyperbole: exaggerated statements or claims not meant to be taken literally.

Irony: the expression of one's meaning by using language that normally signifies the opposite, typically for humorous or emphatic effect.
