Funny reactions in English

For a small, friendly joke, say "That's funny." When someone often makes you laugh, say "You crack me up." When the laugh is so big that you can't control it, say "I can't stop laughing." Be careful with "Very funny." and a flat "Hilarious." because people often say them when they don't think the joke is funny.

逐句讲解

That's funny. Light and casual

Use it for small, friendly jokes with friends or coworkers. Don't use it for a joke that made you laugh very hard, because it can sound too small.

“That's funny.”

出自True Confessions of a Hollywood Starlet (2008)
You crack me up. Warm and friendly

Crack up means laugh a lot. Say this about a person, not a single joke, when they often make you laugh. It's informal, so keep it for friends, family and relaxed coworkers.

“You crack me up. You know that?”

出自The Adventures of Ford Fairlane (1990)
I can't stop laughing. Big, honest laughter

Use it for a really big laugh, when you laugh again every time you think about the joke. It works in speech and in text messages. It sounds strange for a small joke.

“Oh my god. I can't stop laughing.”

出自The Bet (2020)
That's hilarious. Strong and enthusiastic

Hilarious means very funny, so this is stronger than "That's funny." Say it with energy. If you say it slowly and flatly, people may hear sarcasm.

“That's hilarious.”
You're so funny. Friendly compliment

Use it to tell someone they have a good sense of humor. A warm voice makes it a compliment. With a flat voice or a raised eyebrow, it can mean the opposite.

“You're so funny.”
Stop, you're killing me. Playful, very informal

Use it with friends when a joke makes you laugh so hard it almost hurts. Nobody is in danger; it only means "this is too funny." Avoid it in formal settings.

“Stop, you're killing me.”

常见错误

不太合适 ~~You crack up me.~~

更合适的说法 You crack me up.

When the object is a pronoun like me, him or her, it goes between crack and up. You can also say "I cracked up" with no object.
不太合适 ~~Very funny! I love this joke!~~

更合适的说法 That's funny! I love this joke!

"Very funny." alone usually sounds sarcastic in English. If you really enjoyed the joke, use "That's funny" or "That's hilarious."
不太合适 ~~It's very hilarious.~~

更合适的说法 It's hilarious. / It's really funny.

Hilarious already means very funny, so "very hilarious" sounds wrong. Use "really" or "absolutely" if you want more strength, or put "very" before "funny."
