This study undertakes a contrastive lexical-semantic analysis of a set of related verbs in English and French (English  to joke  and  to kid , French  rigoler  and  plaisanter ), using the Natural Semantic Metalanguage (NSM) approach to semantic analysis. We show that the semantic and conceptual differences between French and English are greater than commonly assumed. These differences, we argue, have significant implications for humor studies: first, they shed light on different cultural orientations towards “laughter talk” in Anglo and French linguacultures; second; they highlight the danger of conceptual Anglocentrism in relying on English-specific words as a theoretical vocabulary for humor studies.

Explicating verbs for “laughing with other people” in French and English (and why it matters for humour studies)
