Ribaldry is the jokes and remarks themselves — rude, funny talk about sex — or that whole kind of humour treated as a mass of stuff, like “the ribaldry in the play.” You do not count it: you would not say two ribaldries in careful English. It names the comedy, not the person telling it.

Like ribald, it is a grown-up, slightly old-fashioned word. Reviews of books, films, and old theatre use it; everyday talk more often says dirty jokes or crude humour.

It can be fond (“harmless ribaldry”) or disapproving (“cheap ribaldry”), depending on whether the speaker thinks the jokes are warm and human or just coarse.

It can be fond ('harmless ribaldry')它可以是帶著喜愛的，像『harmless ribaldry無傷大雅的葷段子』 or disapproving ('cheap ribaldry')也可以是帶著鄙夷的，像『cheap ribaldry廉價的黃腔』 depending on whether the speaker thinks the jokes are warm and human要看說話的人是覺得這些笑話溫暖有人味 or just coarse還是只是粗俗

Though actually, it still points at sexual humour, not at any joke that is merely unkind.
