Do You Think Puns Are Punny?


"You can tune a guitar, but you can't tuna fish. Unless of course, you play bass." —Douglas Adams

You may ask; what is a pun?   Wikipedia encyclopedia is a good source to answer this question.  A pun is a variety of a usually humorous play on words involving the multiple meanings of an expression, or two expressions that sound similar.

Many English teachers agree that “the ability to make and understand puns is the highest level of language development”.
