In Taiwan, people tends to study short stories, among which are those old jokes in a colloquial style. 在台灣, 一般人喜歡讀一些短篇文章, 如笑談之類。

    A collection of such old jokes was published on the Taiwan Daily News by a Japanese scholar Kawai Masanaga in 1915. 這類笑談中, 較有名的是日人川合正永在1915年8月編輯,附日文注音來出版在台灣日報的「笑談五十篇」。
             .
     Here, those jokes are rewritten into MLT/TMSS for nowadays' students. 這裡將這些笑談
略為改編成現代口氣而寫成MLT/TMSS, 以供海外台人所閱讀。
             .
     To make the MLT sentence be non-local, the Amoy sound of [o] is not emphasized here, and letter o is used in place of o.    為使MLT成為全國性文書,廈門腔的[o]不再作強調, 而以 o字代替。
             .
     There are 50 jokes given in 5 files.    The arrangement is random, so the reader can pick up any one in any sequence from the following table.  The titles are only for reminder.  下面有五十個選題, 按一下就可看到那個笑話。                                                .
