The present study investigates how phonopragmatic elements are employed in the context of the American Stand-Up Comedies through the lens of a phonopragmatic approach that is based on phonological and pragmatic theories. The problem is that different variations of prosody convey different meanings when they are performed. Therefore, one of the primary challenges presented in this work is the fact that an incorrect modulation of prosody may result in a different meaning, which may subsequently be misinterpreted. Standup comedy is particularly selected to bridge this knowledge gap by phonopragmatically examining stand up comedies in American context.
