Let’s do something ‘pun’ shall we? Yes, ‘pun!’ Do you know what a pun is?

“Jokes or something with another meaning.” – @ahmadzakmal

“‘Pun’ itu permainan kata-kata.”- @mariambawazier

Yap, pun adalah word play atau permainan kata yang biasanya memiliki satu/ banyak arti serta berkaitan dengan keseharian dan lucu. 

Seperti yang pernah dibahas, puns suka dipakai Shakespeare karena saat itu para Elizabethan sangat menyukainya. Tapi tenang, kuis kali ini tidak berkaitan dengan zaman Shakespeare.
