It is a bit of a tough challenge to try to find the funniest words in English. That too out of vocabulary that contains lacs of words. But since, you are learning English that generally, covers all the important words specifically that one needs to speak on a daily basis. It would also be a good as well as a funny idea to learn about some of the funniest English words while you are still learning and exploring the language.
This blog by Ms Sonu Goel, Founder, and Director of Café Converse, Delhi’s Top Spoken English Institute, shares some of the funniest English words that may make you laugh a lot while you speak them.
Let us proceed.
Bamboozle
It means to deceive by underhand manners. It is funny because it is almost impossible to imagine anyone saying this word having a serious facial expression. After you have after getting bamboozled.
Shenanigans
It means a dishonest or secret act or mischief, maneuvering. It is funny because this is a word that is every bit as clever, amusing, and light as a harmless prank it’s describing.
Brouhaha
A noisy or overreacted response to something. This is funny because “haha” is already built in this one. Give a try to say it loud without a crackling smile- almost impossible.
Goggle
It means glasses that are close-fitted have side shields or to look having wide-open eyes, typically having amazement. This is funny because when someone goggle at a thing that their eyes got really big and they appear a bit silly. This is further enhanced if someone goggle with their mouth opens wide.
Malarkey
Precisely meaning rubbish or non-sense. It is funny due to the fact that it is a hilariously non-sensical word describing something which is rubbish or non-sensical.
Nincompoop
A foolish or a stupid person, that is the meaning. Once, again it is a sillier word that has been formed to describe a fool. Although it is an insult, it is simply funny not to use it once in a while.
Badger
It basically, means a nocturnal omnivorous mammal that belongs to the weasel family. Or continuous and annoyingly asking a person to do something. Once there was an English television show named ‘Bodger and Badger’ and the badger in it simply looked ridiculous. Badgers are usually, a bit hilarious anyhow.
