Aprender un idioma con los chistes tiene un doble impacto. Primero, es una fuente de vocabulario, gramática, y usanzas actuales.
Pero talvez más importantemente, es una forma muy motivadora de progresar en un segundo idioma. Proporciona una satisfacción especial el sentirse “del grupo” al entender un chiste en el idioma que se estudia. A continuación, ofrecemos unos ejemplos de cómo es posible emplear los chistes en la enseñanza.
Para encontrar más material apropiado para acompañar y amenizar tu aprendizaje del Inglés, si introduces “jokes ESL” ó “puns ESL” en tu agente de búsqueda ¡te saltarán montones!
El “pun” es un juego de palabras tonto. Un pun es mejor cuando es malo, Y mejor cuando terrible. El mejor pun te hace quejarse de fastidio.
A pun is a little word game, playing with language. Most puns use a word that has two meanings, or use two words that sound almost the same.
Here are some puns. Use your knowledge of English, and your dictionary if necessary, to explain the pun. In each case, the pun is underlined.
Example Why is an empty purse always the same? Because there is never any change in it. In this pun, the word “change” has two meanings: 1. coins and small bills, 2. alteration.
Las más veces los “puns” no se traducen de un idioma a otro. Este ejemplo es una excepción. Podemos hablar del monedero vacío que siempre es el mismo porque nunca tiene “cambia” y no tiemne “cambio”; aunque los mejicanos dirán “feria”, y los puertorriqueños “chavos”, todos lo entienden.

SAM PAINTS HIS KITCHEN
My friend Sam had decided his kitchen needed painting, and instead of hiring a professional, he decided to do it himself. In the afternoon, I went over to his house to see if he needed some help. When I arrived, I found Sam working hard painting the kitchen walls. But instead of wearing old clothes, he was wearing a leather jacket and a ski parka. I asked him why he was dressed that way on such a hot day. He brought me the paint bucket and told me to read the instructions. I did. It said, “For best results, put on two coats.”
El juego está en la palabra “coat” que significa una aplicación adicional de pintura, e sea. “otra mano”. Obviamente, “coat” tambien significa abrigo.

The principal called the young cross-eyed (bizco) teacher into his office. “I’m sorry to say, Ms. Jones, we’re going to have to let you go.” “But why, sir? I thought I was doing a good job.” “It’s simple,” said the principal, “you can’t control your pupils.”.
La palabra “pupil” tiene dos sentidos: alumno, y pupila, niña del ojo.
Tres chistes que tienen que ver con la policia.
