A. Puns. For example, calling a pun "punny" would be a pun, as it is a play on the words "pun" and "funny".

The correct answer is A. PUN. A pun is a form of “word play” or a “play on words,” which suggest two or more meanings by using of words with multiple meanings, or words that sound similar. Though a pun is most often used for humor, it is also a standard literary device; the purpose of puns is to change the meaning of the sentence for humorous or rhetorical effect. No writer is better known for the use of puns than William Shakespeare, who is said to have used more than 3000 puns in his plays.  For example, the opening lines of Richard III read “Now is the winter of our discontent made glorious summer by this sun of York”. In this case, the sun of York is not precisely a comment of York’s weather but rather on Richard, son of the House of York.
