April 1st is April Fool’s Day—the international day of pranks, jokes, and all things silly! And what better way to celebrate than by diving into one of the most groan-worthy and clever forms of humor—puns! So often, people get high scores on English exams but can't craft an original, eloquent sentence. Even more often, they won't understand subtle jokes that play with the language. Why is this? Well, for one thing, you don’t learn this in class._x000D_

Are you familiar with the term pun? It’s a play on words. It’s all about using the double meaning or sound of words to be funny—or should we say punny (pun + funny)! Let’s better understand language by laughing our butts off! Warning: a lot of puns are notoriously bad jokes (also known as "dad jokes"), and Alysia is known for them! Whether you're here to boost your wit, sharpen your English skills, or simply endure some truly awful wordplay, this April Fool’s edition of our pun club is sure to be an unforgetta-pun experience!_x000D_
