One boy said, “I know them, one of them runs an ice cream shop and the other one runs a jeweller’s.” “How do you know that?” “Because one of them is Sister Bete, and the other one is Sister Tija.” Some boys were sitting on a bench when two nuns walked past. Dice uno «Las conozco, una tiene una heladería y otra tiene una joyería.» «❼ómo sabes tú eso?» «Porque una es Sor Bete, y la otra Sor Tija.» Good luck translating that one into English and making people laugh! 4 – Two NunsĮra un grupo de chicos sentados en el banco y pasan 2 monjas. So the banana has asked the apple how long he’s been waiting, but the apple thinks that he’s been asked “have you been a pear for very long?” (These verbs are in the third-person form, but here they mean “you” because the banana is addressing the apple with the polite pronoun “usted”.) The pun here is on the word espera – “you wait” – which sounds like “es pera”, “you are (a) pear”. “‘Have you been waiting here for very long?’ As it turns out, the name isn’t supposed to mean anything, it was just chosen because it sounds cool. Zumba was invented by a Colombian, so after hearing this joke I was curious whether it was a deliberate choice that the name means “buzz”. So what does a bee do in the gym? Why, he zumbas of course! And in many gyms you can work out with the popular dance fitness program Zumba™.
To understand this, you must know that the verb zumbar means “to buzz”, i.e. ¿Qué hace una abeja en el gimnasio? Zumba! So “vaca-ciones” are like lazy cows, because they always go on vacations… get it? Okay, maybe not the funniest chiste ever, but moving on… 2 – Exercising Bees It’s a play on the fact that the word vaca, meaning “cow”, is the same as the first two syllables of vacación, meaning “vacation”. This is a great example of a pun-based joke that makes absolutely no sense when translated. “What’s the laziest type of cow? A vacation!” Obviously, there are many funny Spanish jokes where the humour doesn’t come from wordplay or a pun, meaning they could easily be translated into English and you’d still understand the punchline (or in fact you might have already heard it in English).įor our purposes here I’ll stick with the Spanish jokes that are harder to translate.Ĭuáles son las vacas más perezosas? Vacaciones! In this article I'll list a few chistes if you’re interested in learning some bromas, I’ll leave that up to you. The latter is more like a practical joke or a prank that you play on someone, while the former is a witty line or story that you tell to someone. Jokes in Spanish are known as chistes, although the word “joke” could also be translated as broma. As well as making you laugh (maybe), they might help with your Spanish learning, and teach you some new words.
To redeem myself, I’ll share some funny jokes in Spanish. Okay, that one isn't going to win me any comedy prizes. Uno, dos -” but then he vanished without a tres. ?ĭid you hear about the Spanish-speaking magician? He said “for my next trick, I will disappear on the count of three.
