The purpose of this article is to analyse a type of humorous discourse (nayakyaGak) that is part of the Toba (Guay­curuan, Gran Chaco region, Argentina) verbal repertoire, namely sexual jokes. Integrating linguistic and ethnographic perspectives of analysis, we focus on the lexical and morphosyntactic re­sources used in this type of nayakyaGak as well as on its social functions and contexts of interaction, with a special focus on key contextualization factors creating a play frame for the jokes. Our analysis examines the metaphorical constructions behind sexual jokes and shows potential links between the semantic fields of subsistence practices and sexuality. Furthermore, we show that humour constitutes a discourse practice in which sexuality and emotion can be expressed. This paper contributes both to the study of the Toba discourse repertoire and to the anthropological discussion on sexuality.
