"The gesture for "pasteurized milk" in ASL (American Sign Language) is the
gesture for the word "milk" while moving your hand Past Your Eyes. That's
right, it's a pun."

Milk (noun): https://www.signingsavvy.com/sign/MILK/627/1
Pasteurized milk: https://www.signingsavvy.com/sign/pasteurized+milk

This got me thinking.... what are some other punny languages in the world?
People tell me that puns are highly evolved and prized among Mandarin
speakers. Tamil has the concept of "kadi" jokes which are almost, but not
entirely, unlike puns.

What are your favorite puns in languages that are not English?

Thaths
