Puns
A pun is a type of wordplay that exploits multiple meanings or similar sounds of words for humorous or rhetorical effect. It often involves a phrase that can be interpreted in two different ways, creating a clever or witty twist. Puns are used in jokes, literature, and everyday conversation to entertain, emphasize, or add a playful tone. They rely on language nuances, such as homophones or words with multiple meanings, making language more engaging through clever double entendres or surprising connections.
