A daffynition is a Pun format involving the reinterpretation of an existing word, on the basis that it sounds like another word (or group of words). They are similar to Transpositional Puns , but often much less complex and easier to create. Some daffynitions may be cheap puns, but others can be clever, such as "raisins=the wrath of grapes". A subclass of daffynition is the goofinition which relies strictly on literal associations and correct spellings, such as "lobster=a weak tennis player". Under the name Uxbridge English Dictionary making up daffynitions is a popular game on the BBC Radio 4 Comedy Quiz Show '' I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue . Examples
