Characteristics of humorous language style

Linguistic features of humor: wit, self-mockery, ridicule, humor, etc.

Humorous language usually refers to a speech or speech that is interesting or ridiculous and meaningful.

Humor in a broad sense often includes vulgar jokes. In a narrow sense, humor is different from depression, satire and ridicule. Repression, irony and ridicule all contain laughter. But there are different types of laughter, such as wry smile, guffaw, faint smile and fake smile, and the attitude of smiling again is also different. Some are sour and sweet, some are gentle, some are contemptuous, some are sympathetic, and some are based on the whole outlook on life and have thoughts. The best humor naturally means "the brilliance of the soul and the richness of wisdom". Humor is the most emotional. It is a kind of wisdom that can arouse some emotions in human psychology, and it is a kind of processing or destruction of reality after proper control of logic. Humor or funny can be promoted to the category of philosophical research, and it is not an exaggeration to say that humor is a kind of philosophy.

Humorous jokes can only come from people. Laughter is what people seem to hear and feel. Communication between people depends on language, and language depends on whether there is humor in language.

Humor refers to the absurd and unexpected characteristics of something, but it is implicit or unforgettable in expression. Humor can express repressed thoughts in a socially permissible way. Through humor, individuals can freely express their attacks ("pranks") or sexual desires without worrying about the counterattack of ego or superego. When telling jokes, because the energy of anti-spiritual catharsis is no longer needed, this energy is released in laughter. Jokes, like dreams, are usually forgotten quickly because they are also used to deal with "dangerous" things. In fact, in order to make people laugh, a joke must contain something that stimulates anxiety. We can only laugh off some annoying things.

Humor is a beautiful and healthy quality. Some people think humor is a sign of a person's maturity. Our life today is full of sunshine and laughter, but we might as well let humor act as a spiritual "masseur" after intense work. At that time, life will be more interesting Humor makes people live longer! Adults with a sense of humor live longer than those who lack pleasure in life, and cancer patients with a strong sense of humor have a 70% lower mortality rate than those without a sense of humor.

Humor is a very hot topic, and there is no clear and consistent explanation about what humor is. Humor comes from life and is also learned. Humor is a language form processed by art, and it is an artistic language. Humor is an artistic method, which makes literary works use laughter as an artistic means. Grammar processed by art is a creative language and naturally comes from wisdom. This is humor.

The word "humor" first appeared in Qu Yuan's Nine Chapters Huaisha: "Wen Wan is meaningful, Kong Jing is humorous." "Humor" here means "Humor is silent". However, the word "humor", as a transliteration loan word, has nothing to do with the word "humor" in ancient China. Only with the quenching of the new meaning of the word "humor", as the original meaning of ancient Chinese vocabulary, "humor" was gradually replaced by the new meaning. Lin Yutang explained: "Anyone who is good at humor will be more reclusive;" And those who are good at appreciating humor, especially the inner silence, have a kind of inhuman taste. Unlike rude jokes, the quieter the humor, the more silent it is. "

Humor, as a distinctive color of language, often relies on the comprehensive use of other rhetorical devices and language elements to achieve the expected results. Rhetorical devices such as exaggeration, analogy, irony, irony, homophonic and misinterpretation are often used to form humorous situations. It can be said that a person's humorous talent flashes between the lines of language and works, and the ideological content of "thinking deeply" is expressed in the language of "speaking skillfully", which is implicit and meaningful, full of deep humor.
