Word "a Pun"
Vincent Law Sat Oct 26, 2013 5:08 pm
A 'Pun' is a joke exploiting the different possible meanings of a word or the fact that there are words which sound alike but have different meanings.
Ex: "the Railway Society reception was an informal party of people of all stations (excuse the pun) in life"
- synonyms: play on words
