Strategies Creating Humour. A Typology of Humour in "Harry Potter" and its Usage in TEFL

      Аннотация: Humour is an ordinary activity that happens in everyday verbal interaction making it more interesting and colourful. In many cases humour causes not only amusement and pleasure, but also humility and pain, thus, its function is not solely to entertain but also to mock somebody. From our personal point of view, we may say that it does not matter if you are a joke teller, or not, we have to learn how to understand humour better, how to make sense of it. We have to understand that we should not take the person that uses humour most of his time as unserious one. It happens very often that the teachers, writers or ordinary people like to combine deep humour with deep thinking, which makes them individual, inteligent and wise. We can never state that there is enough humour in the world, because people need it regularly. Humour makes life happier and many times reveals the true side of it.
