SPECIES puns
Hanging is too good for a man who makes puns, he should be drawn and quoted. - Fred Allen
There are many different puns in the English language. pun using play-on-word techniques. Humor puns are made with an acoustic knot. She uses the word or phrase with two different meanings and interpretations. pun works because English language is so ambiguous. Most puns will never be used, but to give you a feel for the pun, we'll look at some of the more unusual ones.
SPOONERISM: reversal of letters in a sentence. It is named after Rev. WA Spooner (1844-1930) who was a prominent Anglican priest who accidentally replaced the initial sounds.
"Is kisomary to cuss the bride?"
"See that man, he Dain bramaged ."
farmer builds her house completely out of Kentucky bluegrass, and uses the second and third floors for its impressive collection of chair of the Kings, purchased from the kingdom throughout the world. chairs are all decorated and everything nice, a farmer spends much of his time taking great care of them.
One day, the farmer decides it is time to fertilize bluegrass that make up the structure of the house, and he is moving all their precious seats in the attic. He carefully spread fertilizer on the third floor, and then run it. Satisfied, he goes to another floor and repeats the process. He fertilizes the family quarters on the first floor, and finally going down to the basement to finish their job.
While he was down there, there was a huge shake. weight of the chair is too much for the attic floorboards and chairs come crashing down. They fall through the third, second and first floor, and crush the poor peasants to death. The moral of the story: People in grass houses should not stow thrones. (If you have to say after a joke, "Forgive me for that one." You probably should not use .)
SWIFTIES TOM: It was made famous by Tom Quick books. Here comes the pun is used as an adverb. This is humor used in a fictional character for a series of children's books written by Edward L. Stratemeyer. "Let's go to McDonald's,"said Tom archly. "I know who turned off the lights," Tom hinted darkly.
MALAPROPISMS: Using a word that sounds like a real word, but it is not. Think about all the Saturday Night Live "show, where President Bush is imitated. There are a few others. But these puns are what gives a bad name puns. What gives a bad name puns are called type III full.
pun is the lowest from of wit, especially if it is not to say that first. - Oscar Levant
Pun type III, where the puns are words that sound reminiscent of using inaccurate. These words are distorted. For example,
Be careful. After all, the world needs more lerts.
early winter is Novemberrr.
Two men were shipwrecked on the island. After weeks without food, one man said: "Why are we starving? We're going to let the bacon tree and get some bacon." Another said: "There is no such thing as a bacon tree." "There is too much bacon tree, " said the first man. He continued to March over to the other side of the island. After several hours he returned with his body full of arrows. "You were right, " he said to his friend gasped. "It was not a bacon tree. It is a ham bush ."
I doubt that will ever use that joke in his sermon, but is smart enough to be told in a social setting. Problem with full III is used when words are too vague, silly or stupid. For example: My neighbor is a doctor and he has a garden of my house. I call it the shipyard. These are just some of the many kinds of puns out there. However stupid they meet the definition of game-on-words.
Vague vs. Ambiguous
before we talked about the kind of puns that can be used for preaching, we must make a distinction between the words are vague and ambiguous
.Uncertainty is defined as not clearly defined and ambiguously defined as an expression of more than one interpretation. Puns considered a two-ambiguous or have two different interpretations. All puns are and must therefore be made carefully. Ambiguity is the confusion and poor communication. When using puns, do not be vague. It will not get a laugh. puns that can be used effectively in a sermon called Pun type I and type II Pun. They are funnier because they are more realistic.
Pun Type I and Type II Full
Enter a
Invisible pun. Homographic puns: the use of multiple meanings from a spell.
Two types
The sound the same, but do not look alike.
Homophonic puns: the use of similar sounds with different spellings
Enter one example
daydreaming student wants to leave school to work in a factory making frozen orange juice. He got the job because he could not concentrate. number of Americans who are overweight has reached nearly ninety million. Of course, this is the rounding.
type two examples
glassblower inhaled and got a pane in the stomach. As Noah noted ungrammatically while the animals boarding the ark "Now I herd everything!" Then there is Paul. He can not really handle things. Paul would be a bust, we would literally have to carry him home. I know. I was one of his regular Paul (Pall) holders.
inveterate jokester following conversation as the shark follows the ship. - Stephen Leacock
Create puns I and Type II
Step one: find the topic you want to use. This could be your sermon topic or current event.
Step Two: Make a list of keywords related to your topic (a list).
Step three: Take a word list and circle any that can be interpreted in more ways than one.
Step Four: Be creative and start to associate words with ideas.
Step Five: Put these words in a sentence clear. You could also make a story out punned words, but if you are good at writing stories, I recommend that you stay with the one-liner. She gets a laugh as loud as anecdotal.
In this example, the sermon topic is used to "Christians can not withdraw ."
Step One: write the sermon topic by using the retirement and that we as Christians will never retire. In the same week, Brett Favre was coming from his NFL retirement.
Step two: I came up with a long list of words and retired NFL word.
Step Three: I came up with the words "never retire" and "pass away."
Step four-five I finally came up with a full I:
Old quarterbacks never retire, they just go ... unless Brett Farve.
Using the same method I came up with a pun II:
I do not care if Brett Favre comes out of retirement. In my opinion he is the best quarterback until he shows me otherwise. He is still the "King of the Throne" (Thrown.) The key to this method is that with a large list and be creative enough to put those words together into meaningful sentences. It helps to invest in a good book homonym.
is a pun gun discharged into the ear. - Charles Lamb
punning is sometimes an ambiguous word, but it is a twist on common phrases or cliche. There are two general types - Reform of the phrase, and Take-Off expression
.reform Phrases such as
You can take a standard phrase, cliche or idiom, and to modify the comic effect. For example:
I'm as pure as the driven slush.
Every crowd has a silver lining.
Most women today have a keen sense of rumor.
Take-Off as
Take-off is another way to use the standard expression for comic effect, but instead of changing the phrase, you take the phrase and add a ridiculous conclusion.
For example:
Who said money can not buy happiness did not know where to shop.
To get back on your feet, miss two car payments.
If you drink, do not drive. Do not even putt.
Create Reform phrases and Take-Off
Step one: find the topic you want to use. This could be your sermon topic or current event.
Step two: full list of standard phrases on your topic. (get some good books on quotations, and clichés.)
Step three: Take a phrase and begin to creatively reform.
Step four: Take a phrase and the start-creative take-off to them.
Step Five: Choose the best for your sermons
Examples (below) to reform and departure from the themes of sin and injustice:
reform: Two wrongs can make a rebellion.
Take-off: Two wrongs do not make a right, but three will get you back on the highway
It helps to invest in a couple of books, jokes and quotes / cliche book. This will make your life easier when looking for funny lines.

This guide would not be complete without a discussion of related jokes.
Jokes Connection
joke relationship is also called cross-over joke. It works because it makes the association. ties joke has a different stance on the word and can be considered as a pun. What is the best cross-over joke is that it is very easy to move and make new jokes from the old.
"I'm worried about my son's health."
"What's he got?"
"motorcycle ."
When you think "he is concerned about son's health, " I think some kind of disease. However, you can learn that "it is concerned that his son's motorcycle. His nose is like an interesting book ... it was red until the very end. connection for the pun of red (color) Reading (reading.) Now, let's use switching method to create new jokes in the first example, consider a set-up and punch line and turn it on.
"I'm worried about my son."
His friend asked: "Why?"
"Because he changed his major to political science."
"Being just bought a suit made of polyester 70 ."
The idea is to take his son to worry about their health and turn it to be concerned about his son's schooling or the son of a clothing style.
In another example, you can easily switch set-up: His nose is like (the Bible, Reader's Digest) ... red to the very end. Or you can switch lines blow: his nose is like a book ... 9 inches wide. His nose is like a book ... thick with black markings on it. Or change both the set-up and punch line: his nose looked like he fell from a ladder ... It is black and blue. The trick is to change the book for the literature and change color to red.
When you change the keywords for something more generic, you will be able to make new jokes. You will be using what professional comedians call a "crossing-over." It is a good technique, and it will become easy to do with practice. the pun is mightier than the sword.
Conclusion
After you apply this technique, a pun in a sermon, you will come to realize that puns are the lowest form of humor. They will become a good source of humor. Here are puns that are covered:
Words
I am full of invisible or pun.
Pun II or sound alike's.
Phrases

Made Jokes
