<em>Many problems and tasks in the science of translation are still waiting to be solved.</em> <em>The issue of translation of the pun (word play) is also one of them. Although much research has been done in this field in foreign science to date, it has not yet been decided on the properties of a device like pun and it is acknowledged that there are different opinions about its etymology.</em>
