Wie nennt man eine Community mit den flachsten Witzen und Wortspielen? c/wortwitzkasse
Kein ahung. I'm English and I don't understand enough German to get this 😢
"Was ist rund," - What is round, "im Wald" - in the forest(?)
That's all I know right now, sadly.
I know "schreib" has something to do with writing?
Google translate translates the joke, but I'm assuming there's also wordplay involved because I still don't understand 😭
Still, I'm in Berlin in two weeks - I think I'll try my luck going to a comedy show anyway!
Schreiber and Schreibär are pronounced pretty much the same.
Yeah, the ä threw me off! Didn't know Kugel meant sphere, but I knew Schreiber!
If I put pen and bear together I might have gotten it! Danke!
It's a play on the german word for a byro - a "Kugelschreiber". Phoneticaly you could also understand it as a spherical bear shouting in the forest - a "Kugelschreibär".
Have fun at the comedy show! :) Allthough german Humor is no laughing matter...
Vielen dank! Makes perfekt sense now!
Any recommendations for German comedians?
