A review of translation theories shows a multitude of approaches, whether linguistic, functional, cultural or cognitive etc., which could be taken when dealing with translation of wordplay. The approaches offer a set of theoretical and practical guidelines that need to be considered when aiming at equivalence. However, what they seem to be missing is detailed and precise strategies that Translator could employ to achieve this goal. The aim of this paper is to present strategies that could be used when translating wordplay based on homonymy. In order to elicit the strategies, the examples of homonyms in Automated Alice by Jeff Noon, and their Polish translations are analyzed.

The article presents the phenomena of polysemy and homonymy within the field of nominations defining love, eroticism, sex and narcotics in the modern Russian jargon. Although polysemous nominations appear in all the semantic groups presented in the article, polysemy is not a representative phenomenon in the modern Russian jargon. Homonymy is illustrated only by one pair of homonyms within the narcotic nominations.

The article deals with sound values of the Polish language described with the idea of using them in the teaching of Polish. The author compiles a list of onomatopoeic words — nouns, verbs, interjections and idioms — suggesting ideas for exercises to be used in classroom. Teachers are en­couraged to use the linguistic material provided, rhymes, puns and linguistic jokes, which are some­times unintentional. This will enable them to move from “humour from pupils’ notebooks”, betray­ing the incompetence of not only pupils but also their teachers, to methodical playing with words.
