Answer:
Ironic- happening in a way contrary to what is expected, and typically causing wry amusement because of this.
Irregardless- Irregardless is a nonstandard synonym for regardless, which means “without concern as to advice, warning, or hardship,” or “heedless.” Its nonstandard status is due to the double negative construction of the prefix ir- with the suffix -less. ... The bottom line is that irregardless is indeed a word, albeit a clunky one.
Beguile- charm or enchant (someone), often in a deceptive way.
