Failed humor in conversation: a double voicing analysis
Résumé
Even if humor in casual conversations is generally based on shared knowledge by the participants, sometimes, it can fail. In this article, we will focus our attention on the failures of humor intending to explain them with a double voicing approach. After having defined our theoretical frame, and after having specified the kind of humor we encountered, we will analyse some examples of failed humor. Two cases will be examined: humor simply not perceived and humor perceived but refused by the hearer.
