    Kein ahung. I’m English and I don’t understand enough German to get this 😢

    “Was ist rund,” - What is round, “im Wald” - in the forest(?)

    That’s all I know right now, sadly.

    I know “schreib” has something to do with writing?

    Google translate translates the joke, but I’m assuming there’s also wordplay involved because I still don’t understand 😭

    Still, I’m in Berlin in two weeks - I think I’ll try my luck going to a comedy show anyway!

      It’s a play on the german word for a byro - a “Kugelschreiber”. Phoneticaly you could also understand it as a spherical bear shouting in the forest - a “Kugelschreibär”.

      Have fun at the comedy show! :) Allthough german Humor is no laughing matter…
