<span>A pun is a literary device
where the author takes advantage of two words that sound the same yet have
different meanings. This is done in
effort to insert comedy into writing. An
example of a pun is “I told a story about static electricity, and it was
shocking.” The pun here is “shocking”

a pun—“Earnest.” The pun exists because
Earnest is both a name within the play as well as sincere. </span>
