<em>Hello There!!</em>

<em>Your best answer choice is:</em>

<em>D. </em><em>Irony</em>

<em>Because, A pun, also called paronomasia, involves a word play which suggests two or more meanings, by exploiting multiple meanings of words, or of similar-sounding words, for an intended humorous or rhetorical effect. Puns are constructions used in jokes and idioms whose usage and meaning are entirely local to a particular language and its culture. To be understood, puns require a large vocabulary.</em>

<em>P.S </em><em>Tell me if this wrong....</em>

<em />GoodLuck!!
