Jokes are a perfect format for learning vocabulary, idiomatic expressions, and grammar. Jokes are also designed to be retold. If you learn a joke by heart and tell it to other people, then by doing so you will also learn the grammar and vocabulary involved.

The book also contains exercises designed to reveal whether you have understood the joke or not:

  • A joke is presented to you but with the paragraphs mixed up. Your task is to put them in the correct order.

  • The joke has a choice of three punch lines. If you select the correct one, this should be an indicator that you have understood the joke.

  • Several two-line jokes are presented together. The task is to match the first line and the second line.

  • A joke is presented with some key words missing. The task is to insert the right word in the right place.
