“We are not amused”. The perception of British humour by British and American English L1 users
Chen, Xuemei; Dewaele, Jean-Marc. - : Elsevier, 2021
Abstract: This empirical study investigates the differences in the appreciation of British humour by British English and American English L1 users. A total of 128 British and 95 American English L1 users (with 18 being bi-dialectal—having experiences in the UK) rated the funniness of two short extracts from two British television series and answered an open question on their perceptions. Results indicated that American English L1 users perceived British humour as less funny and were less able to “get” the ironic and sarcastic aspect of British humour than British English L1 users. This study highlights the role of emotion, as both a reaction during humour processing and a prerequisite prior to humour processing. Moreover, length of residence is not found to be related to the appreciation of humour in another dialect in this study.
