As we know, the most common difference between the British and the American sense of humour
is that the British use irony on a daily basis， while the American don’t. Besides, compared with American jokes which are more obvious and direct, the British ones with the hidden meaning tend not to be apparent.
语篇模块 It’s due to the fact that the British culture
is more reserved than that of the United States. Nowadays, some American comedies have gained huge success in Britain and vice versa. Therefore,
although there are differences between both comic styles, there is still an appreciation and understanding of the other sense of humour.
汉语大意：我们知道，英式幽默和美式幽默的最常见的区别就是：英国人每天都使用反语，而美国人不用。而且，同美国的直接明了的笑话相比，英国的带隐含意义的笑话不是很明显。这是基于英国文化更保守这个事实。现在一些美国喜剧在英国取得了巨大成功，反之亦然，尽管两种喜剧风格有区别，但都还是有欣赏和理解对方的幽默感的地方。 * *
