You should start it. Also

600-800 words

 

[Gangstar1]

For me 500 words = 3mins and a bit so... I cbf with maths

 

[anne1010]

when we had a 5 min speech, we were told to aim for 900 words or around abouts.
I was gonna say just make sure you practice it so u can talk fast without stumbling, but since u havnt written it and you have 48 hours....maybe aim for 800? 750?

 

[ohexploitable]

110-160 wpm is a good speed to be going at.

can i say that dramatic irony gives the audience a sense of superiority?

like the audience already knows that what this guy is doing is foolish and stupid so they look down on him

Yes, if it actually does that. A lot of the times it does, but it doesn't have to in all cases.

I'd say around 700-800
anyway, goodluck with it.

Not necessarily. You can have biased all seeing narrators. But it's probably the closest you'll get to a factual report of the stories events.
