Easter is a time when people use a lot of 'egg' words to make (awful!) PUNS e.g.
All of this celebrating is eggs-hausting
A pun is a "play on words" - a joke exploiting the different possible meanings of a word or the fact that there are words which sound alike but have different meanings.
The word "egg" sounds a little like "ex" so you can make jokes like:
- Eggs-ellent (excellent)
- Eggs-hausted (exhausted)
Maybe this is a good time to review
The only exception seems to be "EXIT" (stress on the first syllable - some people pronounce this as /egzit/).
