#3 Must Watch: The Funniest Joke in the World

๐Ÿ†• There are some videos in this world that you just should have seen to feel like a complete human. Let Afandi English help you achieve this.

โ–ถ๏ธ Todayโ€™s video is an old, very British sketch (=short funny scene in a TV programme) by the famous comedy troupe (=group of actors or singers) โ€œMonty Pythonโ€ about a joke so funny that it kills people. Watch how the Brits (informal = Britons, British people) use it in the war against Nazi Germany.

#6 A Good Laugh: Safe Baby Handling

โ–ถ๏ธ Letโ€™s be honest, some young parents are just too young to handle their babies correctly. Hereโ€™s a guide thatโ€™ll come in handy (=be useful at the right time), not only for young parents but also for greedy vocab grabbers (=people who take something quickly and rudely)!

#10 A Good Laugh: Covid memes

โ–ถ๏ธ Within just two years covid has turned our world upside down. Thatโ€™s of course not funny but whatever problem we face, human stupidity makes for (=causes) some entertaining side effects.

#11 A Good Laugh: Success

โ–ถ๏ธ Did you know โ€œSuccessโ€ could be a name? Actually it is a common one in ๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ฌNigeria, Africaโ€™s most populous nation. Check out how a clever little girl named Success outsmarts (=be smarter than someone else) the adults around her.

#12 A Good Laugh: Bollywood

โ–ถ๏ธ Indiaโ€™s โ€œBollywoodโ€ is not only the worldโ€™s largest movie industry by output, the name is also an interesting linguistic phenomenon called โ€œportemanteauโ€ โ€“ the combination of two words in one. Which two words? Bombay + Hollywood = Bollywood.

Enjoy some truly epic (=impressive and historical) moments of Bollywood.

#13 A Good Laugh: JP Sears

โ–ถ๏ธ You may have seen this guy on YouTube, itโ€™s the one with the long red hair. His videos are all about sarcasm (=joking with opposite meanings), and if you understand the jokes you can be proud of yourself! He loves to criticise fashionable lifestyles in America.
