Wit is scholarly humor. Thinking quickly on your feet requires wit. The ability to snap back or to respond with an intellectual as well as entertaining response is witty. |
Examples of Wit:
| Person A: 'I'm sorry I wrecked your car.' Person B: 'Don't be sorry, be careful.' (Said in a manner that's a little serious, but also playful.) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wit https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wit |
