raconteur (ra kon TER) This noun describes a person who inspires laugh-ter through his or her verbal talents. The word comes directly from the French and means “a storyteller of skillful wit.” (Memory trick: a raconteur recounts things well.)
- Osborne is such a raconteur that he had everyone at the dinner table guffawing at his tales.
- When Jay Leno told the anecdote about the chicken, everyone laughed, but when I tried to repeat it to my buddies, there was an awkward silence. I’m just not the raconteur Leno is, in case you hadn’t noticed.

raconteur (ra kon TER) 这个名词描述了一个通过他或她的语言才能激发笑料的人。这个词直接来自法语,意思是 “有技巧地讲故事的人”。(记忆诀窍:说书人善于叙述事物)。
奥斯本就是这样一个说书人,他的故事让餐桌上的每个人都大笑不已。
当杰伊-雷诺(Jay Leno)讲述关于鸡的轶事时,大家都笑了,但当我试图向我的伙伴们重复时,却出现了尴尬的沉默。如果你没有注意到,我只是没有莱诺那样的说书人。
