What is Humour?

Humour is a subjective experience that can be difficult to define. Generally, it refers to anything that causes us to find something funny or amusing. Humour can take many forms, from jokes and puns to witty observations and slapstick comedy.

• Situational humour: This type of humour arises from unexpected or absurd situations, such as when someone slips on a banana peel or when a car backfires loudly.
• Ironic humour: This type of humour uses irony or sarcasm to create a humorous effect, such as when someone says "Nice weather we're having" on a rainy day.
• Self-deprecating humour: This type of humour involves making fun of oneself in a lighthearted way, such as when someone says "I'm so clumsy, I tripped over my own feet."
