Find an example of verbal irony in hamlet's conversation with claudius and gertrude

An example of verbal irony in Hamlet's dialogue with Claudius and Gertrude is when he refers to them as 'mother' and 'aunt' mockingly. This ironical address highlights his disapproval and the twisted family dynamics without direct conflict, while subtly indicating his awareness of the truth behind his father's death.

An example of verbal irony in Hamlet's conversation with Claudius and Gertrude can be seen in Act 3, Scene 2, where Hamlet refers to King Claudius as his 'mother' and Gertrude as his 'aunt' as if unaware of the true relationship, knowing full well the reality of the situation. Hamlet is doing this to mock the new relationships formed after his father's death and his uncle's subsequent marriage to his mother.

Hamlet uses verbal irony quite often to express his disapproval and grief regarding the situation without directly accusing his uncle and mother of their wrongdoings. It serves as a dual purpose; on one hand, it protects Hamlet from outright confrontation, and on the other, it allows him to hint at his knowledge of the truth about his father’s murder.

I looked upon the scene before me-upon the mere house, and the simple landscape
features of the domain-upon the bleak walls-upon the vacant eyelike windows-upon
a few rank sedges-and upon a few white trunks of decayed trees-with an utter
depression of soul, which I can compare to no earthly sensation more properly
than to the afterdream of the reveler upon opium-the bitter lapse into everyday
life-the hideous dropping off of the veil. There was an iciness, a sinking, a
sickening of the heart-an unredeemed dreariness of thought which no goading of
the imagination could torture into aught of the sublime. What was it-I paused to
think-what was it that so unnerved me in the contemplation of the House of
Usher?
