1 Minute Speech on Humour�In English

Good morning to one and all present here. Today, I will be giving a short speech on the topic of �Humour�.

Humour, as a noun and a verb, has different meanings. As a noun, it is defined by Google to be �the quality of being amusing or comic, especially as expressed in literature or speech.� It is thus the tendency to induce laughter or elicit a smile. Simply put, it is to be �funny� or �hilarious�. 

Humour also happens to be a genre in the field of art, including literary works as can be seen from this definition. 

It could be �a mood or state of mind� as well wherein being in good humour represents a good mood. 

As a verb, Google defines it to be �comply with the wishes of (someone) in order to keep them content, however unreasonable such wishes might be.� Here, it is, essentially, to indulge one�s whims.

There also exist several types of humour including witty, satirical, deadpan/dry, self-deprecating, and dark.

Thank you.
