Broad physical humor, and deliberate absurdity or nonsense, are also commonly employed in farce. 12.poverty n. Poverty is any of a wide range of circumstances associated with need, hardship and lack of resources.

Economic circumstances, describing a lack of wealth usually understood as capital, money, material goods, or resources especially natural resources. The meaning of "sufficient" varies widely across the different political and economic areas of the world.
