What literary form frequently includes the use of satire?

  1. Dramas

  2. Poem

  3. Fiction

  4. Essay

The correct answer is: Essay

One might think that Dramas, Poem, and Fiction could also frequently include the use of satire, however, these forms are not as known for satire as much as Essays are. Essays are generally more casual and opinion-based, allowing authors to use satire to add humor and commentary to their writing. Other literary forms, such as Dramas, Poems, and Fiction, may use satire as well, but it is not as commonly associated with these forms compared to Essays.
