Show transcript
When we satirise something, we use humour to criticise it. Humorous writing involves carefully deploying specific writing techniques. Techniques for humorous writing include irony, parody, bathos and hyperbole. A how to article can be structured in the form of a list or a step-by-step guide. When planning your humorous writing, it is important to identify the techniques you will use as well as the ideas.
