Fun and Funny
If you have problems with the words "fun" and "funny," look at these two sentences and see if you can feel the difference:
1. George is so funny. Every time I talk to him he makes me laugh.
2. I really enjoy going to the beach. It's so fun!
Both words here are adjectives. We use "fun" to say that something is enjoyable; we like doing it. We use "funny" to talk about things that make us laugh. Here are some more examples:
Funny
-Larry's joke about the Portuguese student was so funny I almost died laughing.
-Chaplin’s movies are always funny. Everyone in the theater ends up laughing.
-Mary is really funny. She has a great sense of humor, and always makes people laugh.
Fun
-My vacation in Rio was so fun! I went to Copacabana beach and to the Sugar Loaf.
-Jane's a really fun girl. It's always an adventure going out with her.
-Thank you for inviting me to your birthday party. It was really fun.
-I don't like going windsurfing. I think going to the movies is much more fun.
