Noun

[edit]

huumor (genitive huumori, partitive huumorit)

  1. humour (good-natured jokes)
    • 1965 January, Heino Puhvel, “Sihtjooni läbi Peet Vallaku loomingu”, in Keel ja Kirjandus[1], number 1:
      Kõigepealt köidab tähelepanu huumor, millel kahes esimeses kogus on märgatav erikaal. Päris tabavalt on Vallaku huumorit nimetatud naeruta huumoriks, samuti on esikkogude arvustajad leidnud, et tema tundmuse joon vibreerib kord allasurutud nukruse, kord peidetud muige ja iroonia valda.
      First of all, there is the humour, which has a noticeable weight in the first two volumes. Quite aptly, Vallak's humour has been described as humour without laughter, and reviewers of the first collections have also found that his sense of humour vibrates sometimes with a suppressed melancholy, sometimes with hidden smiles and irony.
