not in 12th grade listening to my classmate Jeremy try to read it without having it explained to him first. He kept pronouncing it "ARgul" rather than "arGALL" so he never heard himself say the joke.

Perhaps my English teacher could have done a better job conducting this lesson but was this really a useful exercise in reading comprehension?

My money is on "your teacher didn't know the joke either".
