Tuesday:

Types of Humour - Hyperbole

Hyperbole - an extreme exaggeration. Ex. I'm so hungry, I could eat a horse.

There is no way, that you could ever eat an entire horse in one sitting. But, the humour comes in knowing that. 

Hyperbole is a silly word in that it doesn't sound like "hyper-bowl" like it looks. Rather, it sounds like "hyper-bul-ee".

Watch this video of hyperbole in action in movies you've probably seen!

Types of Humour - Caricature

A caricature is an exaggeration of a person's emotional, physical, or personality traits, in a wisecrack form.

Example: Her eyes were lasers, boring a hole through me. Her ears were smoking, and her hair was on fire. Mom was mad.

Caricature is said just like it looks "care-ih-cah-ture".

Looney Tunes has made a habit of using caricatures in their cartoons. enjoy this short video of one of their Bugs Bunny cartoons.

Types of Humour - Irony

Irony is a leading part of humour. Irony is using words to express something completely different from the literal meaning. Usually, someone says the opposite of what they mean and the listener believes the opposite of what they said.

Example: Looking at her son's messy room, Mom says, "Wow, you could win an award for cleanliness!"

Watch this video, explaining the three different kinds of irony.
