Respuesta :

The following sentences are hyperbolic and ironic;

  • Tina broke her heart. -Hyperbolic
  • Her grandmother passed away. Ironic
  • "Home come she died so soon when she is still 95 years old",  Ironic
  • Tina was crying a river. Hyperbolic
  • if only she could keep her pain and sadness inside a jar and let it sink underwater. Ironic
  • Life is really fair for taking beloved grandmother away. Ironic
  • How she wished her grandma was given a thousand years to live. Hyperbolic

Hyperbolic sentences are those that are exaggerated. For example, saying that 'Tina cried a river'. This is practically impossible and is rather exaggerated to mean that she cried so much.

Ironic sentences are those that are not to be taken literally because if taken literally, their true meaning might be missed.

Mama passing away is not to be taken literally, but should be understood to mean that grandma died.
