A pun is a kind of joke. In a pun, words are used in a funny way. Often the joke is because the words sound the same, but are different. Example pun:

My trash can's full of toadstools.

How do you know they're toadstools?

There's not much room inside.

Not mushroom, so it must be toadstool. Geddit?
