A piada
The everyday word for a joke. Note that Portuguese does not say a joke "is funny" with engraçado as often as it says it tem piada, literally "has joke". Ter piada is the far more idiomatic verdict.
Examples in context
Ele conta sempre a mesma piada.
He always tells the same joke.
Essa piada não teve graça nenhuma.
That joke was not funny at all.
