Abstract

The article examines the linguistic and stylistic features of the humorous discourse based on jokes in Englishand identifies the distinctive features of the discourse, which are attributed to playful personal and everyday discourse. Morphological features are also numerous, among which the use of a large number of phrasal verbs stands out, which makes the text of the joke more colloquial; the use of neologisms is also noted in order to impress the interlocutor with an unusual, contrary to all norms word-the denouement of the joke. The method of statistical analysis of syntactic means revealed that simple sentences predominate in jokes.
