A pun

A pun


A play on words, sometimes on different senses of the same word and sometimes on the similar sense or sound of different words


I'm not sure what kind of language I want to play with yet but I'm looking into puns etc for now.



Types of Puns

• Homographic Puns
• Homophonic Puns
• Double-Sound Puns
• Ambigrams
• Palindromes
• Tom Swifty Puns
• Spoonerisms
• Oxymorons
• Anagrams
• Pangrams
• Chiasmus
• Tongue Twisters
• Portmanteau Words
• Redefintion Wordplay
• Extended Puns
• The Art of Humorous Puns

I like the idea of tongue twisters this could be fun to play with, looking at alliteration etc.


I am a pheasant plucker,
I'm a pheasant-plucker's son,
I will be plucking pheasants
'till the pheasant plucker comes.
