Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. You generally do this with slapstick comics, or reserve it for really hilarious occasions. Lions do it too, but they're not amused! __________with laughter!

Answer: roar

I think the video gags are what do it to me. Or the Blues Brothers. Or better yet, that cat Salem on Sabrina on Saturday mornings! At my age I should be more dignified!
2. Chickens do this as well as witches when they stir their brew! Something kind of feminine about this laugh and this is definitely what they did on 'Hee-Haw'!

Answer: cackle

This is the laugh you hear in teachers' rooms, at family gatherings, quite a bit.
3. This word for suppressed laughter gave a chocolate peanut bar its name. There is usually something slightly off color that causes it, or there is a slight hint of making fun at this one.

Answer: snicker

Didn't need a hint for that one.
4. A gaggle of girls almost always does this. 'Repeated short catches of breath' describes this type of laugh. Especially when a cute guy walks by! Can't imagine guys doing this after the age of 10 or so.

Answer: giggle

When was the last time you giggled? Go for it!
5. This word for a nervous bird-like high-pitched laugh has three t's in it.

Answer: titter

This one you can hardly stifle!
6. A throaty laugh, slightly more masculine, or a loud boisterous burst of laughter. An off color joke might provoke it!

Answer: guffaw

Hard to describe it, but you hear it quite often with comedy movies!
7. What do you split when laughing very hard, besides your gut, your bladder and your tight pants?

Answer: sides

My average is pretty good for today, I split my sides!
8. Quiet, inward laughter. 'suppressed mirth', good name for a clown, not quite an outburst though.

Answer: chuckle

This you can do at your desk without too much notice!
9. To laugh out loud quite suddenly, when something is so funny you can't help it. To ________________. You can do this to someone else, just make them burst into laughter by making funny faces!

Answer: crack up

The last time I really cracked up was when a friend was making a Mickey Mouse face as I was addressing an audience of about fifty people. Only I could see her behind a screen. I managed to regain my composure though. Cracking up is fun, but cracking up someone else is fun too!
10. Last but not least, the most common internet abbreviation during a chat or IM?

Answer: lol

The ever popular 'laugh on line' (now also known as 'laugh out loud'). I don't like these much but it is hard to tell when people are laughing!
