A. to create humor or levity.
Puns are a form of wordplay that writers use mainly to add wit, humor, or a light tone. (They can also serve secondary purposes—characterization, emphasis, or thematic wordplay—but not typically to provide “source material,” intentionally confuse readers, or specifically to impress reviewers.)
