Which words in these sentences are used as puns? 1. An English teacher is like a judge in that she hands out long sentences. 2. A man's home is his castle, in a manor of speaking.



Answer :

"Sentences" is the punning word in #1, for judges give out sentences. And teachers, as well. Get it? Sentences?
"Manor" is the punning word in #2. Get that? Castle? Home? Manor instead of manner? A pun is a joke exploiting the different possible meanings of a word or fact that there are words that sound alike but have different meanings. 
Another example of a pun is:
The pigs were a squeal.
I wondered why the baseball was getting bigger. And then it hit me.
