What is HUMOUR? How can we define it?
If you are ready to reach perfection, just practice and answer the following QUESTIONS!
( Answers will come out in a couple of weeks, so don't wait too much...!!)
We can refer to the amusing things people say or do as their humour.
If something has humour , it is funny and makes you laugh.
It can be found in a situation ( in a person’s behaviour , in different events creating an unexpected and funny outcome) or in language / speech devices ( tone, word selection, phrasing,etc) . Or in a combination of both.
Humour can be seen as a form of detachment from a certain reality seen through a subjective, sometimes critical but always in a cheerful way. It may intend to provide a new vision of the reality focussed on.
We clearly see the effects produced by humour when used.
But it is interesting to wonder at the purposes it serves ( especially in common situations or in a literary work).

Funny and amusing seem to me to be the ones most related to “humorous
3)
Comical

*please define “kind of entertainement”*
Something tragic is something sad, that induces sorrow and involves suffering.
A tragedy is a theatrical genre with many rules that I am way too lazy to list, and by extension an art genre following those rules
5)
this combination can be for the sake of having a richer story (more different tones), and/or, sometimes, humour can relieve the tension induced by a tragic narrative.
6)
While not great at it, I usually really enjoy humour, especially clever, far-fetched humour and humour induced by repetition.
1. a) Witty
ReplyDeleteb) funny

d) riduculous
e) amusing
2. I think, the two adjactives wich could best refer to ' humorous ' are amusing and witty.
3. We generally use the adjactive ' comical ' or ' humoristic ' when we talk about actors or novels which make people laugh.
4. To my opinion, tragic refers to bad events with death for most of the time and a kind of suffering. A tragedy is generally a drama wich the story is link with a death and sad events. This kind of drama intends to feel pity for spectators (catharsis). There are some famous tragedy like ' Romeo and Juliet' of Shakespeare or 'Phedre' of Racine.
5. To my opinion, the effect produced by a combination of tragic and comical elements is strange because some people can misunderstand the humour and create conflicts in the society. However, this combination can serve to denounce tragic events and the world with hindsight and an optimistic view if this humour is witty.
6. Humour is definitely my cup of tea but we have to use this process in spécial situation. Today, we have to be funny and to enjoy our life because we don't know what our destiny is. Humour can be powerful because by that, we can deliver strong messages to share or defend our opinion. Humour has to be limited, some expressions have not to be in a democracy.
1 a) witty
ReplyDeleteb) amusing
c) silly
d) ridiculous
e) funny
2) amusing and witty
3) comic
4) Slapstick or burlesque comedies are intended to make the audience laugh, but some movies, some theatre plays, musicals or comics can make us laugh too. Shakespeare included chase scenes and beating scenes in his plays for the audience to be entertained. The audience had to weep and laugh.
Tragic refers to tragedies, dreadful situations or events occurring to the characters of the novel, the actors of the movie, of the play. It can be death, separation of lovers…
A tragedy is often inspired by mythology, it shows terror, pity, passions and the catastrophes provoked by these passions.
5) A combination of tragic elements and humor is a tragicomedy. There are elements of tragedy in the plays which end up happily for some of the characters. It is used for the audience to live different passions, to have its feelings evolve during the play or the reading of the book.
6) I like humour, I like being entertained, I do like it when I meet people who are detached from reality, when they do not react as expected: when they see the funny side of life instead of weeping or criticizing.
1: a) witty,
ReplyDeleteb) amusing
c) silly
d)ridiculous
e) funny.
2: ridiculous and funny.
3: Comic
4: I think the type of entertainment is comic strip,
Tragic: it's a think that refer of sadness, treason and dead too.
Tragedy: it is a story with a treason, with a many murders and it's a story with a moral, like "Macbeth" of Shakespeare.
5: A combination humour and tragic can be great if the story is interesting and very many elements of humour. The tragicomedy can serve to flimsy the play's atmosphere.
6: I think, yes humour is my cup of tea because I can laughing during a time without to think to anything.

3. To indicate a type of actor or a film, we often use 'comical' and sometimes 'humoristic'
4. Tragic refers to sad and serious topics and makes us feel strong feelings
A tragedy is a drama or literary work in which characters have to face tragic events and they often suffer. The end finishes with one or more deaths.
But we can have comic and tragic in the same time, for exemple 'Le Cid' from Corneille with comic and sad scenes.
5. A combination of tragic and comic can have different effects : first the story is not only on one tone, as Lucas said, then it can show in a different way the evolution (negative or positive) of the characters because they have to solve dilemmas that will influence the end (more comic or more tragic) and finally authors denounce reality with their own words. If it's a hard reality, they will often use tragic tone, but if we can laugh on it (like L'Avare from Molière) they will use comic tone, and sometimes they use both for a powerful effect.
6. I really like humour, this makes me smile because there are many ways to 'do' it and it's always different. I like it in films, in litterature, from people. However, I prefer it in a clever way,with a reflexion because some situations can be laughed at, but only in a certain way : we have to know it's for fun or we won't understand or even be in conflict with the others.

ReplyDeletea) amusing in a clever way —> witty
b)strange,surprising or puzzling —> funny
c) foolish , stupid or childish —> silly
d)very foolish or being made fun of —> ridiculous
e) entertaining or making you laugh or smile —> amusing
2) on the face of it funny and amusing should be the most relevant. But also ridiculous can correspond because some type of humour as parody can be ridiculous.
3) Comic or humorous are usually used to define this kind of movies, books...
4) _I can quote one man show or some cartoons which are created only for comical purpose.
_Tragic only as an adjective it is define something sad, dramatic, something which make you suffer also…
_ Tragedy is a term which refers to theatre or literature, in fact it is a gender which incorporate some particularities and was very popular in XVII th century.
5) In my opinion the combination of these two characteristics can create black humour, this kind of humour use dramatic or sad stories but in a funny way. For exemple the french journal “Charlie Hebdo” is popular for his great black humour. Whereas this type of humour can be seriously dangerous and sometimes not funny at all, in my opinion we should be aware of the consequences of the use of this humour and probably in a certain way avoid it.
In literature or cinematography it is called “tragicomedy” his purpose is to make story more balanced and interesting to read, it serves to avoid the “too much” effect.
6) I really like humour, jokes and funny lifestyle. I can joke with my friends, my family but also my teachers (shameful). I think there is nothing bad in have a great humour and use with everyone, because first of all its purpose is to make people laugh! And without laugh we cannot be really happy. :)

ReplyDeleteb)funny
c)silly
d)ridiculous
e)amusing
2.In my point of view, witty and amusing are two adjectives could best refer to " humorous" because humour is made to laugh in an objective way.
3. We commonly use the adjective comical.
4. Most of the time, burlesque and light entertainments are intended to make people laugh especially in TV program. We can note there is more and more TV shows intend to make laugh by means of not very serious involves things such as singing, dancing, telling jokes sometimes by forgetting the clever way...
The theater can be mentioned when it's about a comedy, of course.
The adjective tragic refers to the deathly human condition because it calls to mind gloomy and sorrowful events. A tragedy is a drama whose purpose is the death, we already know it. This kind of drama invites the spectators to be affect by pity.
5. The combination of tragic elements and humour create suspens and tension.We don't have any idea about the purpose of the story. So throughout the story we stand at attention and we try to pick up informations which seem to be important that will allow us to find out if the purpose is comical or not. The comedy-drama uses elements of comedy to dramatics ends.
6. Of course, humour is my cup of tea. I think it is very important to know laugh and to know how to make laugh. Because humour in its form unify (its contents can be divided) and make people feel fine. With humour we can say what we didn't want to say a frank way, in fact some things goes better with humour...
