  • American humor refers collectively to the conventions and common threads that tie together humor in the United States. It is often defined in comparison to the humor of another country – for example, how it is different from British humor and Canadian humor. It is, however, difficult to say what makes a particular type or subject of humor particularly American.Humor usually concerns aspects of American culture, and depends on the historical and current development of the country's culture. The extent to which an individual will personally find something humorous obviously depends on a host of absolute and relative variables, including, but not limited to geographical location, culture, maturity, level of education, and context. People of different countries will therefore find different situations funny. Just as American culture has many aspects which differ from other nations, these cultural differences may be a barrier to how humor translates to other countries. (en)
  • 美式幽默是一種將美国與幽默联系在一起的說法。美式幽默通常被拿來與其他國家的幽默相比較，例如，人們常常會討論美式幽默与英式幽默和加拿大幽默之間有何不同。然而，很难給美国化的幽默下一個準確的定義。美式幽默通常涉及美国文化的各个方面。个人觉得一個做法是否幽默显然取决于许多情況，包括但不限于地理位置、文化、心理成熟度、教育水平和背景。因此，有些国家的人们会觉得有些美國式的做法很有趣，但其他國家的民眾可能並不認同。 (zh)
